User_ID is set as a global variable so it doesn't 'usually need to be specifically read into the script. I'll try this though, if it works I would have to change it thorough the system. Doesn't explain why it is working on other systems though! "Trevor Gryffyn" <TGryffyn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote in message news:B97E3961173C4943BF7C722DFE31943DCF08CA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx . I don't see any $_GET['User_ID'] statements anywhere. When you pass a value via the URL like "scriptname.php?userid=9999", you either need to use $_GET[] or $_REQUEST[] to retrieve the data. That could be why it's being 'ignored' -TG > -----Original Message----- > From: Garry Grierson [mailto:garry.grierson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] > Sent: Thursday, June 17, 2004 7:25 AM > To: php-windows@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Self-calling script problem. > > > > I have a script that asks a user to login using an ID and > password, it then > displays a login menu based on the users access type. > > > > This script works on another machine, but I have attempted to > set up PHP on > two new machines and keep getting the same problem. > > > > The script runs but when the user types in their data and clicks the > continue button the parameters being input into the script do > change but it > looks like it is being ignored. > > e.g > > Calling the page for the first time works: > > http://160.221.21.129/timelog/index.php > > > > Self-calling with the additional user_id > parameter set results > in the login screen being shown again! > > http://160.221.21.129/timelog/?user_id=99999 > > This should now show the users menu options.
