PHP playing up :(

Can't anyone who knows the basics of PHP let me know why this is working? Its either something *VERY* stupid, or PHP is misconfigured Frown

All it does is return a blank value...

Code:
<? 

global $p; 

echo $p; 

?>

I'm calling it with page.php?p=test . Theoretically it should print 'test' Unsure

Cheers

Sounds like register globals is off (as it should be. big security nightmare with that on)

try it as

echo $_GET['p'];

--mark

Eugh....stupid me! You are absolutly correct. I knew it had to be something to do with either a PHP setting, configuration, or a REALLy stupid boo-boo in my code.

Thanks for that.
