Hi hightide,
This is peculiar! I tried submitting the ?i=1 with POST and that didn't work either. It seems like request information isn't getting to the script.
Here you can see the script on your old site failing to get a record: http://www.hightidecreative.com/identity.php?i=9999
But on your new site, it seems like the script isn't paying attention to the request at all: http://s183940.gridserver.com/identity.php?i=9999
I think this is a problem with your web host, and it could probably be proven to them that there's a problem by using a simple <?php print_r($_REQUEST) ?> script, but that's a guess.
I would like to do a little more research if you can provide us with FTP information. Please don't post it here, though! Please fill out a Second Level Support Request and put my name and a link to this forum post in the Summary of Problem field:

Thanks!
All the best,
