[RESOLVED] Is it Sever Settings?

[zzz]

Hi,

I'm trying to run old script on a new server and it won't work. So after a bit of testing I realized that the variables that are in the URL are not understood by PHP scripts. For example I put the following test:

<a href="?test=OK">test</a>

<?

echo $test;

?>

So I expect to see 'OK' echoed when I click the link. I see OK in the URL but not on a page. Is it some sort of server setting? I am just moving to a new server.

you should always access get variables using the $GET[] array.

echo $_GET['test'];

ps: it is a server setting. register_globals is off. this is a recommended setting.

Does that mean I have to rewrite entire site using echo $_GET['var'];
?..

What would happen if I turn register_globals ON ?
