Get is requiring $

[abudabit]

My boss is having a problem with his configuration where gets are requiring $ before the variable name in the url to be recognized. I have never seen this configuration before and have no idea if it is with the php.ini file or httpd or something else entirely. Anyone see this before?

[chazzy]

you mean the $_GET array? or something else?

We have global registers on, because the scripts he has are designed around it (variables from gets being $variable instead of $_get['variable'].

But currently instead of form.php?blah=fdsafd we need to do form.php?$blah=ffsdfd with the way the config files seem to be set. I have never seen it need the $ before in the url.

Ok, we got it working. I'm not sure why ?$fsdfd=fsdfd was working and the other wasn't but we just got rid of the .ini files and replaced them with the originals and everything was good. That server was set up 5 years ago by a guy who doesn't work here so we had no idea what was going on with the setup.
