PHP problem for redhat 9

[Simon Lee]

Dear all,

My php webpages can be ruun normally, However, when they are moved to the
other server with Redhat 9, some following problems about php will occur,

1. when the webpage is linked to other page
http://www.xxx.com/index.php?item=Aboutus,
the "item" variable "Aboutus" is no longer valid, Why? How to tackle such
problem them?
Does the new version of php no longer support such function,

Regards,
Simon

This is by far the most common question about php. It is asked on daily
basis in php-related forums. The thing is, as you suspected, that they've
changed the functionality of that feature. The variables no longer exist by
default, but you use $_REQUEST, $_POST and $_GET to read them. so instead of
$item, you'd use $_GET['item'] in your code. to read more about it, see
http://fi.php.net/register_globals and to change it back the way it worked
in the old server, edit the register_globals setting in your php.ini...
