isset($_REQUEST['var']) works fine on one server but not on another

[Sean]

Hello,

The isset($_REQUEST['var']) works okay on other servers but not on
mine. The way the application works is the links are provided as:

http://url.com/cc.php?page=currencies&new

And then in cc.php the code is

if isset($_REQUEST['new']) {
...
}

The problem is with the above code it sees new as not set and the if
statement isn't exectuted. The same code on other servers works OK.

If I change the url to:

http://url.com/cc.php?page=currencies&new=

or

http://url.com/cc.php?page=currencies&new=something

Then the isset($_REQUEST['new']) will be true.

Is there any setting in my php config to make php see 'new' variable
as set as I've shown in the first url in this message?

Thanks,

Sean

I don't think so. I always use 'script?php?var =' if I want an empty
variable 'var' that is 'set'.

Read that as 'script.php?var =', of course. Sorry.
