Ok, I want you to picture someone on their knees with a picture of complete and abject humiliation on their face as you read this.
It WAS the register_globals setting. I have been using the PHP.ini that I use for all my installations... but I obviously screwed up somewhere along the line. I fell into the mistake of believing it couldn't be something so obvious. Thanks for your help Stuart. You are now welcome to make as many sarcastic and cutting comments as you like... I certainly deserve them! Oh well... we live and learn. On this basis, I am apparently the only person (according to this newsgroup!) that has got the PHP 4.2.3 and Apache 2.0.43 working together? I can't believe this is the case, though...
