ah, i think we are going to need more info to slove that one  :? 

what do you mean by can't send info? do you mean his browser is giving an error or that the php progame is not wroking right for him?

also a real url to the real php file whould be nice so we could see what is going on. 

i am not one of the best poleop on this fourm with php but my guse whould be:

1. he is not typing it in right
2. there is a error in the php file
3. somting that i dont know about    :P

yeah, global should be off ... to access those url variables with global off you use $HTTP_GET_VARS['variablename'] or for newer versions just $_GET['variablename']

you should always try to write your scripts so that they will work with globals off

i use globals on.... it doesnt really have a 'security issue' because its not really up to php... its more up to the server..
