PHP QUERY_STRING help..

Anon

Hello..

I'we got win2k + apache 1.3.14 + php 4.0.4 + mysql and it looks something is wrong because if i use URL localhost/blah.php?something=1, the url that will show will be localhost/blah.php without QUERY_STRING.

It looks like i didn't even write anything behind "?".

Someone told me, I must change "register_globals" to On in php.ini, and i did. And still nothing..

I made a simple script: <?php echo $QERY_STRING; ?> and it doesn't show me what i typed in qery string.

but if i type "print $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING'];" it shows!

maybe someone hes the same problem, solved, or there is someone, who knows the answer to my problem..

i will really apretiate it if someone can reply to this post.
thank you..

So, let's get this straight :

foo.com/index.php?name=value

Within index.php :

<?php

print '<br>' . $name;
print '<br>' . $QUERY_STRING;
print '<br>' . $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING'];

So, $name and $QUERY_STRING are not printing, right? If both $name and $QUERY_STRING are not printing then it is indeed register_globals being off. Upon changing it you must restart apache.

hm..

hello again..

you guess right, but, i must report, that i do register_globals = On, but, there are two register globals in php.ini, so I modified just first one.. (yes, i'm a fool)..

anyway, thank you very much for your answer,

best regards,

You are not the first nor will you be the last to do such a thing, it happens. Pretty silly :-)
