I'm learning since a couple of days a bit of php from a book called PHP Zonder Stress (Dutch for PHP without Stress).
Thanks to this section I figured out my problem.
Book examples were written in php 4.0.6 and I'm using 4.2.2
By turning the register_globals = On. The script in book works fine.
But I want to learn how to do it the right way.
So some help would be very much apreciated to convert the code to correct code for register_globals = Off.
Description:
In home.php there are articles listed, but limited to a display size of 40 characters. By clicking on the link "more" you go to the page news.php where the complete article is listed.
Code: Select all
<a href=nieuws/news.php?news_ID=" . $newsї'news_ID'] . ">more</a>In news.php with the following code and with register_globals = Off, I get an Notice: undifined variable $news_ID.
Code: Select all
// Performing the query where the news_ID is loaded into the variable $news_ID
$news_SQL = "SELECT * FROM news WHERE news_ID='$news_ID'";
// Query results
$news_result = mysql_query($news_SQL) or die ("Error in query: $news_SQL. " . mysql_error());
$news = mysql_fetch_array($news_result);Thanks in advance,
