PHP Globals

[cjosephson]

First off, does the use of $GLOBALS['var1'] mean that register_globals needs to be set to on? I'm not sure if $GLOBALS is part of register_globals, or if it is an alternative to it.

 

The problem that sparks this question is this code:

<?php	

// Build SQL Query  
$query = "select * from allsw where name like \"%$GLOBALS[trimmed]%\"  
  order by name"; // EDIT HERE and specify your table and field names for the SQL query

$numresults=mysql_query($query);
$numrows=mysql_num_rows($numresults);

echo "$numrows";

?>

<?php echo($GLOBALS['numrows']);
?>

 

The first echo works perfectly, and spits out the correct number of results from the query. The second one, however, does not print anything out for some reason.

 

The $GLOBALS[trimmed] works perfectly and returns valid results, but it is not working for $GLOBALS[numrows].

 

Thank you for any help.
