URL with query is not working...

[Lomas]

<?php
if ($id == 1 && $lang == 1)
{
    echo "hello";
}
?>

hey guys i am working for my final year project. i have a problem. when i tried to run this url on my pc http://localhost/filename?id=1〈=1

it wouldn't work....

but when i tried this on my hosting, it will print out the word "hello".

my hosting is running php4....

and my pc is running php5...

does version matter?

It has to do with the magic variables setting. Try using $_REQUEST['id'] and $_REQUEST['lang'] instead.

Thank you for replying.... really appreciate it...

i tried....

<?php
if ($_REQUEST['$id==1'] && $_REQUEST['$lang==1'])
{
    echo "hello";
}
?>

but its still not working...

how do i turn on the magic variables settings?

[azimuth0]

no,no...

<ul><li><?php</li>
<li>if ($_REQUEST['id'] == 1 && $_REQUEST['lang'] == 1)</li>
<li>{</li>
<li>    echo "hello";</li>
<li>}</li>
<li>?></li>
</ul>

It's better if you leave it off . Imagine how easy is for someone to hack your code .This is the reason why the developers set the register_globals off by default from php 4.2 . Instead u can use the EGPCS values ( Enviroment , Get , Post , Cookies , Server ) it's much safer
