cancel a text lines

[BjoernJackschina]

Hello,
at present I have a solution to cancel an line entrie within a table.
<a href=\"pa.php?loeschen=1&nr=$nr>
It works with reading or selecting text files and so I know if someone
has canceled a line.
But I don't know why it doesn't work with Apache because my solution
was with ISS. So my question what is another solution to cancel
particularized lines or what have I done wrong.
The variables 'loeschen' used to be not reconize, as
well(isset(loeschen)).

Maybe somebody can help me.

if i understand it correct, then it should be the `register_globals prob'.
either you activate this setting in your php.ini or you write
better code, for example $_GET['loeschen'].
look here: http://de3.php.net/variables.predefined

sers.

It sounds like your problem is related to the register_globals setting.

Whatever server you originally had the script set up on must have had
register_globals enabled - therefore, the URL you gave in your post would
result in the variable $loeschen being set to '1'.

Now you're on a server which doesn't have register_globals on (which is a
Good Thing), it doesn't get set. You'll need to change $loeschen to
$_GET['loeschen'] instead.

register_globals, while making for easy (and sloppy) coding, is a security
risk. A quick Google will tell you why.
