  Ok, I upgraded from .762 to .764 yesterday and now one of my custom modules is no longer working.
  
  It appears that none of the variables are being passed to the script. The vars are passed via the URL. For example:
  
  http://www.aquaria.info/modules.php?op=modload&file=fishspecies_query&name=database&txtstext=tetra&Submit.x=6&Submit.y=6
  
  Should pass the var named txtstext with a value of "tetra".
  
  The script has:
  
  $varName = array("criteria","txtstext","op","file","name");
  
  However nothing is getting put into var 'txtstext'.
  
  So, what has changed in .764 and what do I need to do to fix things.
  
  Thanks!
  
  Sean

  You should use $_GET'[txtstext'] and not $txtstext.
  
  Adding a few lines to your code should work:
  $txtstext = $_GET['txtstext'];
  
  Do that for each variable, and you'll be fine. I think

  At least use the API intended for such tasks - $var = pnVarCleanFromInput('var');
  
  It seems like your code depended on register_globals = On, which in .764 is disabled to improve security.
