Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php4-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-latest.zip When trying to replicate this bug please make sure your file_uploads php.ini value is set to On. In some versions of PHP, POST vars would get lost on multipart forms when this option has a blank or Off value. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-19 00:54:26] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am experiencing the same POST problem. I thought it might have been an HTMLENTITIES problem (which I posted an error) but after reading these bug reports, I get the same thing. I spent 3+ days programming around this. Very frustrating. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-18 20:10:54] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mozilla 1.1a is OK either; it seems to be an IE6.0 bug (maybe, a specially coded feature?) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-18 13:53:45] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Retraction: I had two errors in my header after fixing these errors I can access $_POST varibles in both 4.0.6 and 4.2.3. It appears that some multipart/form-data parsers are more forgiving than others :) POST /cgi-bin/XXXXXXX HTTP/1.1 Authorization: Basic XXXXXXXX Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=XXXssxvnjhpdqdxvcrastvybcwvmgnykrXXX User-Agent: Java1.4.0 Host: XXX.XXX.XXX.X:XXX Accept: text/html, image/gif, image/jpeg, *; q=.2, */*; q=.2 Connection: keep-alive Content-length: 142 --XXXssxvnjhpdqdxvcrastvybcwvmgnykrXXX Content-Disposition: form-data; name="fieldName" fieldValue --XXXssxvnjhpdqdxvcrastvybcwvmgnykrXXX-- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-18 04:26:10] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am using PHP 4.2.3 with Apache/1.3.20, RedHat 7.2. When uploading files with enctype="multipart/form-data" I experienced the next problem: all files of types other then text/plain or text/html had been corrupted, e.g., the first 4 lines of a gif picture were: GIF89a% wered.gif" Content-Type: image/gif GIF89a% , that is, the file name was "ra-powered.gif", a part of this, content-type and an empty line from the posted data had been added to the beginning of the file. The following image data remained intact. The preceding post variable (as phpinfo() listed: _POST["submit-type"] updat - must be "update" _FILES["picture"] Array ( [name] => ra-powered.gif [type] => image/gif [tmp_name] => /tmp/phpjsjZRj [error] => 0 [size] => 3810 ) _SERVER["CONTENT_TYPE"] multipart/form-data; boundary=---------------------------7d213414b022e ) had been corrupt (1-4 last characters cut off, depends on the content-type). All other variables were ok. The problem is only with IE 6.0, Opera, Netscape6 and Konqueror are ok. Tests with PHP 4.2.0 and 4.2.2 show the same results. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-17 09:41:13] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, I have tested using the following platforms: Platform 1: OS: Windows XP Professional Webserver: Apache/2.0.40 PHP: 4.2.3 Platform 2: OS: Windows 2000 Professional Webserver: Apache 2.0.40 PHP: 4.2.3 Platform 3: OS: Windows 2000 Professional Webserver: Apache 1.3.26 PHP: 4.2.3 I use a custom http client to connect to the http server. The http requests are multipart/form-data. A sample request: POST /cgi-bin/XXXXXXX HTTP/1.1 Authorization: Basic XXXXXXXX Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=XXXssxvnjhpdqdxvcrastvybcwvmgnykrXXX User-Agent: Java1.4.0 Host: XXX.XXX.XXX.X:XXX Accept: text/html, image/gif, image/jpeg, *; q=.2, */*; q=.2 Connection: keep-alive Content-length: 142 XXXssxvnjhpdqdxvcrastvybcwvmgnykrXXX Content-Disposition: form-data; name="fieldName" fieldValue XXXssxvnjhpdqdxvcrastvybcwvmgnykrXXX-- The $_POST array is empty. I have tested against IBM HTTP Server/V5R2M0 and have not had a probelm retrieving multipart/form-data POST variables using IBM REXX CGI Parse. I am pretty sure my header is valid.
