Then whatever code you have at 'Assume here we change $year to be
"1961"' is, to use the appropriate technical term, fucked code, and you
need to fix it.

1) You've already been told that $_GET is an array, not a function call,
and that you must use $_GET[some_fieldname_in_quotes] rather than
$_GET(some_random_text). If you can not absorb this simple bit of
information, you will never learn to code in php, so you should stop
trying now.

2) I don't see a first instance of a "$_GET['some_field_name']" or even
a richard_fucked "$_GET(something)" in the example code you offered, so
I have no idea what you mean when you say the problem occurs even if you
use a second instance of $_GET().
