I know this has been discussed before but I'm having trouble finding
anything that outlines it.
I installed 4.2 and I want to use sessions with the "stock
configuration." I tried this but it doesn't work...what should I be
doing different?
Page 1 ---------
<?
start_session();
session_register("testVar");
$testVar = "This variable has been successfully registered";
?>
Page 2 ---------
<?
start_session();
echo $_session["testVar"];
?>
thanks,
Ron

In what way? What error do you get?

echo $_SESSION["testVar"];
Would be better I think (variables in php are casesensitive, I've learned it
through $_GET last week=))

Is anyone running PHP on Win2k with dynamic disk mirroring? If so, have you had any
problems with it?
I have a problem where include files are being corrupted somewhere between the disk
and PHP and it's causing huge problems. The only difference between this server and
the other servers we have running PHP is the dynamic disk mirroring. We'd seen it a
couple of times on other sites we host, but we've recently installed ezPublish and
it's become almost constant. For an example, go to http://www.gurn.to/ - if you get an
error on the page, simply hit refresh until it goes away (sometimes it doesn't). That
will show just how random it is.
We are not experiencing any other filesystem problems on that server. We don't want to
disable the mirroring without being pretty sure it will solve the problem.
All experiences/insights, good and bad, are appreciated.

Check to see how many copies of php.ini are on your system. Although it
shouldn't affect the module version, the php.ini in the c:\php (or whatever)
folder is read by the CGI executable instead of the one in c:\windows

I have the Globals turned off and I'm trying to figure out which array
will alow me to access varibales passed in the URL:
Example:
<a href="test.php?testVar=myValue">next page</a>
What array with the variable "testVar" show up in?
Thanks,
Ron
--- End Message ---
--- Begin Message ---
Use $HTTP_GET_VARS['testVar'] or $_GET['testVar'] - $_GET[] is
preferred as $HTTP_GET_VARS[] is deprecated.

George,
I'm sure that if Ron had wanted such constructive input as that offered by
yourself he wouldn't have bothered asking.
Frankly, my inbox is already too busy being part of the PHP-WIN list, the
last thing we need is a bunch of noise that doesn't actually contribute to
the conversation. If you insist on offering such valuable insights in the
future, please don't post them to the entire forum, these types of messages
serve no purpose.
Due to the nature of this mailing list, we tend to get a lot of newbie-type
questions that some of us may have already seen 100 times, that doesn't mean
the answer is any less important to the 100th person to ask than the 1st
person.
One thing that should possibly be considered to help reduce the amount of
repeated questions would be to send a PHP-WIN FAQ to every new subscriber
detailing the most commonly sought solutions (eg. how come mail() doesn't
work. That way when we get a question that we're all sick to death of
answering, we can simply point to the relevant section of the FAQ.
If this is something that others feel would be benificial, I would be more
than willing to begin compilation of the FAQ.

In my defense, I did read the page but I was unaware that passing a
variable as part of a URL string was considered a GET action. Had I
known that I would have been able to figure it out.
You learn something new everyday.

I don't want to be malicious. But,.... when you have a question what is the
first place where you search? In my opinion? The Manual!
I'm not guilty for your busy inbox, newbies are and they must be taught..

I've recently upgraded to XP Pro from Windows Me. I previously had PHP
running with the gd extension on Omnihttpd server, but found with the same
configuration gd would not work (Error messages: First: " The procedure
entry point add_assoc_long could not be located in the dll php4ts.dll" Then:
"Unable to locate dll 'c:\httpd\php\php_gd.dll' - the specified procedure
could not be found".
I've also tried installing with Easywindows on IIS - again, gd does not work
(though no helpful error messages).
So I'm coming to the conclusion there some incompatability between XP and
the php_gd.dll. Does anyone have this working on XP? Can anyone suggest how
I can fix this?
Many thanks

I think the dll has been re-named to php_gd2.dll. Just rename the
extension in your php.ini to this and re-start the web server and you
should find it works.

Hi,
I have a problem with global variables on a NT 4 system with IIS 4 and php
4.0.6 (cgi). I try to set a global variable inside a function with the
following code,
$GLOBALS[$varname]=$varvalue
but this doesn't work. The same code works on w2k with iis 5.0 and the same
php.ini, so I don't think it is anything wrong with the php configuration.
Anyone experienced the same problem, or perhaps a solution or tip?
Jan Erik
