Oh, forgett, I believe if you turn off safe mode, then you can access them via variable names, but not really recommended from a security point of view. -----Original Message----- From: Svensson, B.A.T.

U can use $_POST['regionName'] or $_GET['regionName'] to get the values. -----Original Message----- From: Michael To: php-windows@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: 27-5-2004 22:37 Subject: PHP GET VARIABLES I'm working through a tutorial book. They are retrieving variables from a GET parameter by just referencing the variable in the script. example: <?php echo "Region Name is " . $regionName . "\n"; ?> Where the variable is feed through the get URL: http://localhost/example.php?regionName=Riverland The only problem is that I'm using IIS so it doesn't seem to pass the variable to the script the way the author intended. Maybe its just an IIS issue. I can setup the var with a $_GET["regionName"] but just curious if there is some sort of php.ini setting or something I'm missing to make this work.
