BASIC HELP on php

[tobias]

I am new in programming with PHP.

I wrote the following code:

file name: output.php

<?php echo $texto; ?>

And I call it on my browser like:
[url]http://localhost/cgt/output.php?texto=testing[/url]

The response in my browser is:
Notice: Undefined variable: texto in C:\Inetpub\cgt\output.php on line 1

Can anybody help me?
Lots of thanks.

(you can reply to my email address.)

That's because of a setting in php.ini ... REGISTER_GLOBALS = OFF ...
<?php echo $_GET['texto']; ?> will work though

hth,

You have register_globals set to off in your php.ini file.
user $_GET['texto'] instead of $texto.
