Hey guys and girls,

My site www.hm has experienced considerable downtime of late - my hosting account ran out and I haven't been as quick as I might on getting a new one sorted.

The new host has given me a different cpanel username so i cannot do a full backup recovery

I believe I have added all php pages and SQL dbs exactly as they were running before. However, now whenever any script is run; eg. index.php?do=do_lookup nothing happens. Try it: http://www.hm/

Its got me seriously stumped. I've added the SQL dbs as I've said with db user with full access. The only thing I havent touched is permissions for files but wasnt sure if this is relevant.

If anyone can make ANY suggestion as to why this is I'd be incredily greatful; there will be no flames in this thread!

Looking forward to getting my site back up!

All the best, Duncan.

PHP Version 4.4.2

Server API: CGI

I've made some heavy mods to my script, it now doesnt use a subdir (its worked like that for ages)

Basically to expand on what ive written before; no php file responds to a parameter call i.e. http://www.hm/index.php?do=do_signup should initiate signup (or at least give an error message saying no domain)

To clarify things I’ve uploaded www.hm/test.php

Code: Select all: <html> <head> <title>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body> without php <?php echo "with php "; if ($do == 'do') {echo "with do";} ?> </body> </html>

I’d have thought that if you called www.hm/test.php?do=do

It should say 'without php with php with do' however it misses off the 'with do' which is essentially whats wrong with the rest of my site – is there a way to turn on and off this functionality with cpanel or something?

I'm this close to starting again! Any help would be well cool!

I no less about php than you lol

But have been told this.

$do is a var that's not assigned
you can do

('do' == 'do') {echo "with do";}

or also

$do = 'do';
($do == 'do') {echo "with do";}

Or your other problem could be that register globals might be turned off on some servers and the code wouldnt work.

I just turned it on on this test server and the code worked as your post so i guess its your host and they have it off as its not a good idea to have it on

$do = $_GET['do']; should work with globals off

Scooby, didn't get a chance to thank you. Totally right!

Just got the host to copy php.ini to the local directory and changed the gobal setting myself!

Thanks!
