Strange PHP Error

Well, it isn't really an error, but more of a problem. I have the following script

PHP Code:
include 'func.inc.php';
if(!
$num){
doHeader("Stuff");
echo(
"<a href='script.php?num=1'>Text</a>");
}elseif(
$num){
deHeader("Other Stuff"); //Upon clicking the link, it should go here, but it doesnt, it just shows the link again
echo("The number is: " $num);



First off, the server I am working on is running on Solairs 8. Now, when I clicked the link, it would take me to script.php?num=1 but it wouldn't show the other stuff, it would show the link again, like it wasn't even recognizing that $num was there. I uploaded the script to a different server running RedHat 7.3, and it worked fine. On the Solaris server, we have phpBB installed as the forum, and it works fine. So I am wondering why my script will not run, permissions possibly? Thanks.

Sounds like register_globals=off to me. Check php.ini to see what the value of register_globals is. If it's turned off on the Solaris box, there's your problem. This setting, when disabled, forces you go define variables within their scope -- $num no longer represents the GET variable named num, which must in this case be referred to as $_GET["num"].
