variables not passing through urls 4.1.0

Anon

i'm using windowsxp with foxserv, i updraded to php 4.1.0 and its not letting me pass variables through urls. for example i 'm developing an image gallery when you click on a thumbnail the browser points to http://127.0.0.1/igallery/fullsize.php?big=826605-001.jpg it goes to the fullsize page but the variable is not passed and therefore the image is broken. i also tried it on other scripts i wrote and some i downloaded... i cant figure it out. is there a revised way of passing variables in the new release?

You\'ve probably most likely used php.ini-recommended file didn\'t you? Well if you did then the global variables defined in the older PHP variables are set to off. Use the new arrays PHP has defined for you to pass variables using GET or POST methods. The same thing applies to COOKIES and Server variables. For instance if I type this address.

http://my.server/test.php?greeting=Hello

--test.php--
<?php
print(\"$_GET[greeting]\");
?>
--test.php--

This would then print \"Hello\" like it should.

Refer to the manual and the change list on http://www.php.net homepage.
