Oh, I think you have the register_globals problem... Search the manual for
'register_globals' for more info...

Assuming it's not a downloaded script that is...

I added them to the extensions directory and uncommented them. The
result is an unending series of server pop-up errors all begin with
"WARNING - Function Registration Failed - duplicate name -" followed by
"imagecolorallocate", "imagecolorresolve", "imagecolorset", "gd_info",
and a few others. I think you will probably get the idea.

That means that you somehow have got them included twice! Are you trying to
use gd and gd2 at the same time? I do not beleve that you can run both GD
and GD2, as they use the same functions (hence the pop up error messages)

I always use "./includes/blah.php"
That seems to work for every top level, with includes in a subdirectory,
and use
"../includes/blah.php" for subdirectory off main site - I dont go deeper
than that but it works fine.
Hope it works out
Cheers - Neil.

I've been tearing my hair out for 2 days now trying to get this to work and
I'm sure the answer has gotta be pretty simple...
I'm using PHP for the first time and have got some pages uploaded to my live
site and they work like a dream - the problem is that they won't work
locally using PHPdev.
Every page on site uses the following include code on every page:
<?php
include($DOCUMENT_ROOT . "/include/header.htm");
?>
the theory is that no matter where you are in the site hierarchy (there's a
lot of directories within directories) it should still work.
Like I said, it DOES work fine when I upload the pages to my ISP but only
the top level files of the site work locally. If you go down into
sub-directories I get the following error:
"Warning: Failed opening '/include/header.htm' for inclusion
(include_path='.;C:/phpdev/php/includes;C:/phpdev/php/class') in
c:\phpdev\www\curve-online.co.uk\discography\official.php on line 12"
Any idea how I can get my local server working the same as my ISP server?
cheers

Stuart,
This problem occurs when you try to access an index in an array that
does not exist.
First off, make sure that your variables are getting passed to the
script via POST. Do this by calling the function print_r(), and passing
the $_POST array as an argument to it.
print_r($_POST);
That will dump the entire contents of the _POST array onto the screen,
so you may check exactly what's in there. This may give you a clue as to
what is going wrong. I tested your script on my 4.3.2 build, and it
worked fine.
If $_POST doesn't work, give $HTTP_POST_VARS a try. If that doesn't
work, I'm stumped. What web server are you using?
-Adam.

I had to do a system restore yesterday and basically blew out my PHP setup. What I
seem to not be able to find is a definitive guide to setting up PHP properly. I have
followed the install guidelines on php.net (documentation) for Windows. What I found
though before, was that it was not completely accurate and some of the comments
helped. For instance, in the documentation it says to put php.ini into the root
directory, which by the way suggested would be /winnt. No there is no /winnt under
XP. So following the other possiblity I dropped it into /windows. Nothing happened
so following someone's comment I put it into /system 32 along with php4apache2 and
php4ts. This seemed to turn it on. This though confuses me as it still states to
reference php4apache2 in the http.conf file as apache/sapi/php4apache2. If I copied
it over to system32 should I reference it there.
Anyway is there a definitive guide for install, or some proven method to get PHP
4.3.2, Apache 2 (latest stable) and XP Pro all singing the same tune?
Thanks
Stuart
