My first guess would be that you have "register_globals" set to "ON"
in Apache, and $previous is set in Cookies or Get data.

It's also possible that you have managed to do this in some setup with
session.auto_start and where $_SESSION['previous'] is set to "N"

Having register_globals set to "ON" is probably a Bad Idea for various
reason.

Using short tags (<? instead of <?php) is also a Bad Idea.

Finally, echo "$previous"; is silly, as the quote marks serve no
purpose at all.  echo $previous; would be better.
