it should be in the $_GET or $HTTP_GET_VARS array in the index.php script. put this at the top of your index.php script
var_dump ($_GET); # or $HTTP_GET_VARS depending on PHP version and see if the value is there. Also, if you are using the value in a function and you have PHP < 4.1.0 (I think), GET array is not global so to get this value you have to declare the array global example function some_function () { global $_GET; echo $_GET['year']; } NOT function some_function () { echo $_GET['year']; } Bobby "Uma Shankari T." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Hello, > > I am facing one problem..i am getting one variable value from another > file by using href..I need to use that value in the entire file..how can i > do that..?? > > for example i am using the href like this.. > > <a href=$next/index.php?year=Apr1998 target=right> > > i am passing the Apr1998 to the index file..i need to use the Apr1998 > value fully in any places in index.php..how can i use that ?? > > please advice me.. > > Regards, > Uma > -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
