Get var woes

[cooldude832]

I'm trying to create a dynamic search type criteria and i'm passing it via a GET var and then it has this :

<?php
if(ISSET($_GET['adcrt']) && $_GET['adcrt'] != ""){
echo $search[$_GET['adcrt']];
echo "<br/><br/>".$_GET['adcrt']."<br/><br/>";
}
else{
echo $search['horse'];
}
?>

and it works great when my url is search.php or search.php?adcrt=anyadtype

but when my url gets other search vars like search.php?search=yes&adtype=horse&state=AL&breed=Akhal+Tekes&gender=Male&adshow=2&adcrt=horse&sort=1&limit=0

in there it fails any ideas?

dude y do you have to do this

if(ISSET($_GET['adcrt']) && $_GET['adcrt'] != ""){

i think its the same as

 

if(!empty($_GET['adcrt'])){

[cooldude832]

i know i just write it that way still don't answer my question

[teng84]

even if code it that way its seems to be fine but try using the lowercase isset just a guess

[cooldude832]

no that if is workign because it will echo out the critera word if i say echo $_GET['adcrt'] but in the echo $search[$_GET['adcrt']]; it fails

[teng84]

try to debug maybe thats empty

try

$x=$_GET['adcrt'];

$search[$x];

 

i know thats the same but just a guess again

or

try to hard code

 

$search['your real value']

try if something will be echo that should always be done before you panic
