Check to see if your register_globals is set to off in php.ini. If so (likely, since it defaults to that value) you'll need to access your POST and GET variables like this: GET vars: $var = $_GET['var']; POST vars: $var = $_POST['var']; Gary Every Sr. UNIX Administrator Ingram Entertainment Inc. 2 Ingram Blvd, La Vergne, TN 37089 "Pay It Forward!" -----Original Message----- From: Manoj Japher [mailto:manojjapher@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, October 04, 2004 9:29 AM To: php-db@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Help needed hi, I am new to PHP and I am not sure if this is the right forum. I am trying to run PHP thro webmin using CGI scripts. PHP runs fine except that when I am trying to read variables coming thro' a form after hitting the submit button, I get NULL values. I can read and write to the database without any trouble. The problem is reading the form values. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
