Constants working locally but not on the server

constants

[Matthew1980]

Hello people of webmaster world.

I have a localhost issue I think, something probably not set in the php.ini file or something like that.

first call in the index file is:-

include("setup.php");
//in this file there is a dbcall that uses the SERVER constant to switch a ternary op ie:-

SERVER ? "localuser":"hostuser"; and the same for pass & db selection.

this bit is further down the index file
define('SERVER', '0'); // 0=localserver 1=hostserver

i cannot seem to get this to work the same way as it does on my localserver. I am running php 5.0.5 &Apache/1.3.33 (Win32) PHP/5.0.5. On the host server I am running php 5.2.5

I am just hoping as it is a simple fix, been trying to fix this for 3 days.

Thank you in advance.

Have you tried defining SERVER before you do the include? The if statement is probably assigning it to local as it hasn't been defined elsewhere yet. Try

define('SERVER','1');
then
include('setup.php');

TommyBS,

Thanks for the reply, it shows what a fresh pair of eye's can achieve. Works nicely now. Now for the next part!
