[PHP] $_POST[] - last character cut away!!

[Herbert Mraz]

Strange problem here (win2k - iis 5.0 - php 4.2.0):

whenever I send formdata by POST-method, the last character gets
stripped...everything's fine when I use GET!
I tried various different (HTML-) input types, same everywhere...

register_globals is off, which shouldn't make a difference?

Anybody?

Herb

HTML - body contains:
 
 
 
 

 test.php contains:
 
 when I type in:   'example'
 test.php echoes :   'exampl'
string-length doesn't matter...

Re: [PHP] Re: How do I Install PHP on Apache 2, on win32

[Herbert Mraz]

No problem here (Apache 2 / PHP 4.2.0 / win2k):

Following went to httpd.conf:

LoadModule php4_module c:/PHP/experimental/apache2filter.dll
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

Dropped the 'AddModule' - line, seems not to be needed anymore!

BTW, for those who read my postings about $_POST[]-vars being truncated with
PHP 4.2.0 and IIS:
Solved the problem by installing Apache 2 :-)), works great!

Byebye IIS,
Herb

Vincent,
as register_globals is off, I use
echo $SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
which works fine...
though everything has to be uppercase, what surprised me!

Re: [PHP] error-catching

Gert,

to prevent PHP to output any error messages, you can prefix the expression
with @, i.e.
$db = @mysql_connect( $host, $user, $password) or die ('Sorry, server is
down!');

Greetings,
Herb
