[Plugin: Pagerank tools] Globals defined in the wrong place!

The pagerank-tools.php contains the following:

$prtools_url_table=$wpdb->prefix."prtools_url";
$prtools_pr_table=$wpdb->prefix."prtools_pr";

global $prtools_url_table;
global $prtools_pr_table;

which basically defines the variables – and then sets them as globals : which redefines them as null;

The code needs to be :

global $prtools_url_table;
global $prtools_pr_table;

$prtools_url_table=$wpdb->prefix."prtools_url";
$prtools_pr_table=$wpdb->prefix."prtools_pr"
