title: php 5.3.2 - $_get $_post is not working
body: <p>I run an apache server on my localhost with php and mysql support. The only problem is, that <code>$_GET</code> and <code>$_POST</code> are not working at all.</p>
  
  <p>This is my html file:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;html&gt;
  &lt;body&gt;
  &lt;form action="message.php" method="GET"&gt;
  Enter your message here: &lt;input type="text" name="msg" size="30"&gt;
  &lt;input type="submit" value="Send"&gt;
  &lt;/form&gt;
  &lt;/body&gt;
  &lt;/html&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This is my message.php file:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?php
  $input = $_GET('msg');
  echo "$input";
  ?&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If I type "blablabla" into the text input field in my html it redirects me to [localhost]/message.php?msg=blablabla which is good but the php gives me an empty page.
  I checked out the source code of [localhost]/message.php?msg=blablabla but it only has an empty  part and an empty  part.</p>
  
  <p>Did I make any mistake or is this a bug?</p>
