revraz Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 $_GET['sid'] ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFMaBiSmAd Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 If that is all of your code, it is highly likely that register globals are on and the value is getting overwritten. Otherwise, post your whole code, because it could be anything in your code that is causing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frijole Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 did you try print_r? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
br3nn4n Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 definitely try $_GET['sid'] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFMaBiSmAd Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 FYI - $_GET[sid] will "function" (assuming there are no other problems in the code), but it will be about 20 times slower than the proper syntax $_GET['sid'] because with the proper syntax, php does not need to go through all the error handling code necessary to figure out that there is not a defined constant named sid and then try it as a quoted index named 'sid' For the quickest executing code, use proper syntax.

spikeon Posted March 5, 2008 Author Share Posted March 5, 2008 OH!!!.... i looked it up... google really is a great tool. sid is also used as "Session Id" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revraz Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 So what does that mean, it works? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spikeon Posted March 5, 2008 Author Share Posted March 5, 2008 with the '' it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooldude832 Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 it means registered globals is on and $sid is already declared via session id Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
