# global php var in widget

 * Hi !!
 * I’m trying to build a widget to show me some photos from my flickr photostream.
   I already have the application and I was just setting it up as a plugin / widget.
   
   After an afternoon of work most of the things work fine but the widget won’t 
   run correct.
 * It seams like wp is having problems with global php vars in the form function
   in die widget class. I have to access two global vars (arrays) which store the
   usernams and avalible methods so I paste “global $bfp_users” into the first line
   after “function form($instance) {” and the widget option page in the admin panel
   won’t show correctly (it only loads half and doesn’t work). When I remove this
   line and refresh the admin page it show fine.
 * I don’t understand the problem, can somebody help me?!
 * Thanks,
    brainzina
