I don't know why...but i have a problem with the variables: i am using lastest version of apache 2.0.43 (but the problem there was also with 1.3.22).
The problem is that variables in url (script.php?variable=1234 for ex.) and in post method then are not in php (if i write echo $variable php says that $variable is empty). But using phpinfo() i can see the variable...

What a bug!! (And it's very strange that phpmyadmin works correctly!!!)

See you and tnx!

In PHP 4.2.0, the 'register_globals' setting default changed to
'off'. See http://www.php.net/release_4_2_0.php for more info.
We are sorry about the inconvenience, but this change was a necessary
part of our efforts to make PHP scripting more secure and portable.

I faced the same problem before

But after I add the statement:
$variable=$_GET["variable"];
the problem is solved
