PHP Errors with New Hosting Provider


slimboyfatz32

Recommended Posts

Hi to all on the Forum ,

 

I am a relative newcomer to PHP , and have a guestbook with a new hosting provider (my old host was a Linux environment and so is the new one) , I had no problems by the way with my old host and said guestbook. When I try to execute the PHP script I get these errors returned :

 

Notice: Undefined index: user in /home/fhlinux169/j/jjsplaycentre.co.uk/user/htdocs/php_guestbook/php_guestbook.php on line 167

 

Notice: Undefined index: task in /home/fhlinux169/j/jjsplaycentre.co.uk/user/htdocs/php_guestbook/php_guestbook.php on line 168

 

Notice: Undefined index: adpass in /home/fhlinux169/j/jjsplaycentre.co.uk/user/htdocs/php_guestbook/php_guestbook.php on line 169

 

I am at a standstill , any help is much appreciated  :)

Those errors mean that the script is trying to access the indexes that don't exist in an array.

 

Go to the lines in question (167, 168, 169) and look for which array uses those indexes (user, task, adpass).  Those indexes are supposed to be set by something, but aren't actually being set.  Find out where that data is supposed to come from and why it's not getting to where it needs to be.

 

Posting some of the code in question would be very helpful.

Thanks all for the replies , here is a snippet of code from aforementioned problem .....

 

$user=$_POST['user'];
$task=$_POST['task'];
$posted_pass=$_POST['adpass'];
