code bug after upgrade from PHP 5.1 to 5.2

[wipe]

Hi guys,

 

a few days i upgrade php from 5.1 to 5.2.16

all seem fine and last 2 days i start to find some bugs.

I use this code to get url var and pass from a form:

                <?php
				  echo $_GET['id'];
?>            
                <input name="ids" type="hidden" id="ids" value="<?php $_GET['id'];?>" />

 

In the email i receive all data from the form, but not this that i get from the URL.

 

in code to send to email i just use:

$_POST[id] 

 

This work fine in 5.1 but not in this version.

 

anyone have an idea why?

Are supposed to use either GET or POST, not both, try to change it to all of one type and see if it works.

Look to the HTML of the form. It should be:

<form action="" method="">

 

If 'method' is not defined, default it is set to 'get', and then you have to collect the variable with $_GET['id']. If the method is set to 'post', then you have to fetch the variable with *_POST['id']. You could also choose to fetch the variable with $_REQUEST['id'] - this predefined variable holds the content of $_POST, $_GET and $_COOKIE.

You need to actually echo the value here:

 

<input name="ids" type="hidden" id="ids" value="<?php $_GET['id'];?>" />
// should be 
<input name="ids" type="hidden" id="ids" value="<?php echo $_GET['id'];?>" />
