I doubt that it's a globals problem since it doesn't look like you're even
checking any php variables.
Perhaps try <?PHP instead oft he shortcut <?

you are not echoing a variable so register_globals set to On will have no
effect in this case (I would switch it back Off as it will be more secure
and you should get used to coding that way)... Do you see any errors in the
server log? Does it work if you use <?php instead of <? as your opening tag?
When you view the source of the resulting page do you see your code in the
html?

Subject: [PHP-WIN] newbie form question..
I just created a simple html form and a .php file as a test to be sure php
is working right. All I want the form to do is test the echo construct
(which prints the text between the opening and closing php tags) to be sure
my php interpreter is working right.
The line in my html form used to identify the method looks like this:
<form action="processorder.php" method=post>
The line in my html form used to trigger the submit button looks like this:
<input type=submit value="Submit Order">
The code in my php file called processorder.php looks like this:
<html>
<head>
<title>Seans Designs - Order Results</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Seans products</h1>
<h2>Order Results</h2>
<?
echo "<p>Order processed.";
?>
</body>
</html>
The problem is when I hit the submit button on my form, I see all the text
accept for the text Order processed which is contained in the php tag. In
other words, its as if the echo construct is being completely ignored. I
think the problem has something to do with the register_globals=on or off
thing. So, I changed the setting from off (which was the default setting) to
on and restarted apache. No joy!
Is there something in the code that I need to change?
thanks

Rich,
thanks for your response. I've tried using the <?php tag- no joy and I can view the
code in my php file. Also, you mentioned that I should take a look at the server log.
Where would I find that?
thanks-
Patrick

One rather key question, are you invoking your form through your web server?
or are you accessing the file directly?
One way to access the file directly (which you don't want to do) is to use a
file reference to browse and find the file on your C: drive.
You should be accessing the first file through your browser with a URL like
http://localhost/firstfile.php
You can get the symptoms you describe by not invoking the file through your
web server.

Apache error.log is usually in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\logs -
your installation drive/directory maybe different ... if you can see your
code in the html then apache is not configured correctly and is not invoking
php to process your code... check the php installation instructions for
details on how to configure apache on win32...

Warren,
that was it! I wasn't envoking the form from the 'local host'. Instead I was browsing
the c drive. Now I can see the text w/in the php echo tag.
Thanks again for the help guys-

You should check out the CGI spec:
http://hoohoo.ncsa.uiuc.edu/cgi/overview.html
http://hoohoo.ncsa.uiuc.edu/cgi/interface.html
Basicly, you have to have the web server create a process, and then all
those CGI values (REQUEST_METHOD, QUERY_STRING, REMOTE_HOST,
REMOTE_USER) are first set as environment variables for the process.
Then you execute the file with php.exe.
You do not need to intialize the superglobals yourself... PHP will do
that for you, according to the environment values you set.

Hi guys,
I'm writing a web server for Windows. I want to know how to make it support
PHP.
Here's the easy bit (which I know how to do)...
1) A client requests a web page called "anything.php"
2) The server notices the extension ".php", looks this up in the server's
configuration settings, and says "Aha - this is a PHP script".
3) The server runs the PHP script, and sends the output stream back to the
client.
Here's the bit I _DON'T_ know how to do...
How the hell can my server INITIALISE the superglobal variables $_GET,
$_POST, $_SERVER, $_SESSION, etc. in preparation for running the script?
... I mean, it's an easy enough matter to call:
system("php something.php")
to run a PHP script ... but that won't initialise the superglobal variables.
There doesn't appear to be a command line parameter to php.exe that lets you
specify this information. So how's it done? How do other web servers do it?
Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Hello people,
I have a question about developing Multi Tier applications using PHP. I
wanna use XML as an output format, and then use XSL to transform this to
whatever format, like HTML. However i am quite new to Object Orientated
Programming and i am now wondering how-to do this. I have build a
database abstraction class, as i will have to get the data from a MySQL
database. This is the content layer. Now i understand how that works,
what i am wondering about is what the business layer should do and how
it should acces this data. Should the bussines layer generate XML? and
the presentation Layer using XSL to transform this into XHTML.? I am
just wondering how this all works together...?
This method of working seperates content from design, and should make
the project more extensible, but is it slower the procedural code? Can
anyone give me some pointers in the right direction here;-). Does anyone
know some good tutorials about OOP and more specificly Multi Tier
applications in PHP? Any thought and help is appreciated. Thanks for
your time..
Best regards,

Can anyone help.
I can't seem to access/run any of my programs from the start menu. I can run
a program such as Microsoft Word when I open a file associated with it, but I
can't get a program to run from the start men u options. I think I might have
a virus, 'cause I can access any system settings from control panel either.
Again, can anyone help??

I followed the instructions in a php manual to write a script that will send
emails using mail() function. Only one problem, where is my sendmail
program on windows XP. Or what do i need to configure in the php.ini file?
--- End Message ---

Alex,
You have to point it at your ISP's SMTP server (assuming this is for
home). Check your mail program for your SMTP server. Sendmail is a unix
thing, although there are similar programs available for Windows, your
best bet is to use an existing server. Mail from unknown sources is likely
to be rejected or declared "spam". Your PHP.INI file holds the key. Change
it (and the mail from value) and restart your web server.

You have a mis-match with your brackets. Count your { and } to see if you
have the correct number. You will find that you are missing a }. Give your
code another once over, make the change and you should see better results.
You might find that if you indent your sections you will find it easier to
spot these sort of errors IE:
if (blah == blah)
{
var $somevar;
var $anothervar;
if ($somevar == $anothervar)
{
echo "it worked";
};
}
It's much easier to see if you have matched up your brackets this way.
