PHP Problem

[WebWatcher]

Ok I have a link that looks like this:

http://mydomain.com/index.php?act=Arcade

now at the top of the page I have the following..

if($act=='Arcade'){
}else{
header("Location: home.php");
die();
}

But for some reason it doesn't continue to load when i go to the direct link it does the redirect.

I did work up until I upgraded my php version.

Can somebody please assist ASAP

Regards

probably register_globals is off now ...

if($_GET['act'] == 'Arcade'){
}else{
header("Location: home.php");
die();
}

i know, it must be because register_global is turned off.

if you want to enable register global for this directory only, create a .htaccess in the directory which contains the file:

php_flag register_globals on

or edit the php.ini change the "register_globals = Off" setting into "register_globals = On"

Actually, krakjoe's suggestion is better. however, if you have a lot of php files with the same coding style, and if you're too lazy to edit one-by-one, then just use mine because enabling register_globals usually put some risks.

of course you won't, http://mydomain.com/index.php?act=Arcade is NOT his site. he said, he has a link that looks like that.

Have you defined $act as $act = $__GET['act'];
