Code Hard Coded f=$forum[forumid]

[alqadir]

Is it hardcoded in VB that f always equals f=$forum[forumid].

In a templete If I extract the f value from the URL (URL format is somefile.php?f=$forum[forumid]) then submit the templete to a php file, and in the php file I set a variable "c" to equal c=$forum[forumid], will C have the same value of f?

What you're saying doesn't quite make sense. Could you please describe what you are trying to achieve?

you can play with the resource here to find WHY it's built that way:

in includes/init.php, FIND:
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST')
{... you'll have the needed resource there, as you see why it's hardcoded to f= ...

To answer what i think your question was, to make another variable equal to forumid, add
$c = &$f
in your php file.

My question was is 'f' a system reserved variable that equals $forum[forumid].
From reading nexialys answer, it is by default. Is this correct?
