The index pages are displayed properly, since they don't require any vars to be passed, but every other sub-pages (e.g. index.php?sub=2) don't do anything, the normal index.php is displayed.

If you have just updated to PHP4 from 3, be advised
that the "register_globals" handle in php.ini is now OFF
by default, and therefore any code of the type

include "$sub";

should now read

include "$_GET['sub']";

This might be the problem.  See the FAQ's
at www.php.net or www.phpbuilder.com/board
for details.
