Basic HTTP POST not working

[zoryk]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to get HTTP post to work on my server but even the most basic script does not work. Can anyone help me?

 

PHP script:

<?php
echo 'Hello ' . htmlspecialchars($_POST["name"]) . '!';
?>

 

 

I try and POST data to the script using:

http://www.czoryk.co.uk/post_test.php?name=Chris

 

But when I try and do that only ' Hello ! ' is displayed. I'm sure this is just a simple error but I can't figure out what's wrong.

 

Thanks, Chris

Should work if you change it to:

 

<?php
echo 'Hello ' . htmlspecialchars($_GET["name"]) . '!';
?>
