Try $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] If you don't have 'register_globals = on' setting in your php.ini file then you must reference these special server variables in this way.
It's generally a good idea to leave 'register_globals = off' and identify the global variables either by $_SERVER['varname'] or $_POST['varname'] etc. because the other way can be a security risk. -----Original Message----- From: Adam Dear [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 29, 2003 9:49 PM To: php-install Subject: [PHP-INSTALL] $PHP_SELF I have just installed php. I am new to php. I have read several items(ie. books, online documentation). I have seen references to a variable called $PHP_SELF. I have tried to use it in a form, but to no avail. Here is a line of code where I have used it: <form action=<?php echo $PHP_SELF ?>?form=yes method="post"> However, when I view the souce of this page, the "action" attribute is simply: <form action=?form=yes ..... The $PHP_SELF variable is not referencing anything. Is there something that I have not configured properly? Please help a newbie. Thanks
