Slow variable processing

[Anon]

I just installed php running alongside xitami, under windows ME

I noticed that it takes ages for php to process even a single form when passing a variable from one script to another.

My form is a simple,

---begin name1.php---
<Form method='post' action='name2.php'>
<Input type='edit' name='nameVar' length=100>
<Input type='submit' name='My name is?'>
</Form>
---end name1.php---

My script is,

---begin name2.php---
<?php
print ("My name is $nameVar");
?>
---end name2.php---

When I enter some letters in the edit box and press the submit button, it takes AGES for php/xitami to process the form and output the result.

Anyone can help me here?

Try referencing the variable in name2.php as follows:

<?php
$HTTP_POST_VARS['nameVar'];
print ("My name is $nameVar");
?>

I'm running php4 on xitami under win98 and had the same problem. Don't think mine ever came up.

<?php
$nameVar = $HTTP_POST_VARS['nameVar'];
print ("My name is $nameVar");
?>

Faster would be:

My name is <?php
echo($HTTP_POST_VARS['nameVar'])
?>
