I'm currently learning the language, and I'm having a problem passing variables through "URL query". Here is what I have: A simple HTML file that contains: <A HREF="test.php?var=test"> Hi, this is a test! </A> and a php file that contains: <?php echo( "Welcome to our Web site, $var!" ); ?> However, when I click on the link on the HTML file, I dont get the value of $var passed to the php script. I have also tried passing multiple variables separated by &, and none of those gets passed to the php script. The files are hosted on a local Debian etch server running apache 2.0.54 and php 4.3.10. Is there something I need to check/change in the config files of apache or php?
