As a follow-up to my post yesterday, it appears as though the firewall
software we have on our Windows machine (Comodo Firewall) was the cause
of the problem. Using the Windows firewall didn't cause any problems.
This may not be the case in for the other people with problems but I
thought I would at least post the resolution to mine.
I would recommend that everyone disable all firewall and security
software if they are experiencing this problem.

Just came across the same problem myself last week.
PHP 5.1.6
Apache 2.0.59
FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE-p11
EVERY browser I have tried in Windows fails to work past a request size
of about 1450 bytes. I have tested IE 6.0, FF 2.0.0.3 and Safari Beta 3.
PHP still returns the requests size via getenv("CONTENT_LENGTH") but
both $_POST and $_GET are empty.
When I try the EXACT same page on the EXACT same server with both FF
2.0.0.3 and Safari 2.0.4(419.3) I have no problems submitting however
much data I want. Here's my test form:
/-------- CODE ---------/
<html><head><title>TEST</title></head>
<body>
<pre>
<?php
print_r($_POST);
print_r($_GET);
echo "Request Length: ".getenv("CONTENT_LENGTH");
?>
</pre>
<form method="post" name="form" enctype="multipart/form-data"
action="test.php">
<input type="file" name="file" /><br>
<input type="text" name="field" value="<?php echo $_POST['field']; ?>"
/><br>
<textarea cols="80" rows="8" name="text"><?php echo $_POST['text'];
?></textarea><br>
<input type="image" name="submit" src="images/addcart.gif" /><br>
<input type="submit" name="submit-button" value="Real Submit Button"
/>
</form>
</body></html>
/-------- CODE ---------/
I get the same result with and without the enctype. I can't believe
nobody has found a solution for this yet. If somebody has, please post
it here or email me and I will.

I have experienced this issue also.
My environment is:
- php 4.4.2 as a module
- Apache 1.3
- Windows 2000 Server
When I send a form with a text area using POST i don't receive any
data.
In my case, it was because I was sending de form using a Javascript
code:
function newitem(tipus)
{
var accion;
if (tipus == 1)
{
accion =
document.mailing.action="pre_mailingsmanuals.php";
}
else
{
accion =
document.mailing.action="env_mailingsmanuals.php";
}
document.mailing.action=accion;
document.mailing.submit();
}
The input was specified as a button: <input type="button"
onclick="newitem(1) ...>" instead of as a submit.
Also, I was using a Rich Text Area. This issue doesn't occurs with a
normal textarea.
The form get working when I change the "button" for a "submit", without
use javascript code for send it.
I hope this message may be usefull for other users with the same
problem. There is an official response from the PHP team from this issue
?

I have been having similar problems, i.e. a form which submits happily
in Firefox, but not in IE 7. I have found this (very old!) forum entry -
http://www.thescripts.com/forum/thread4451.html - which covers my issue,
and I have implemented the solution by checking for
(isset($_POST['submit']) || isset($_POST['submit_x'])) to check whether
my submit button has been clicked. Note that is an underscore, not a
'.'.
The solution works for GET method as well, if you are using that. If
you submit a form with a 'submit' image button using GET, the browser
URL shows submit.x=aa&submit.y=bb where aa and bb are the coordinates
within the button image of where you clicked, but you should still check
for $_GET['submit_x'] NOT $_GET['submit.x'].
As discussed in the above referred forum log this is an issue affecting
Internet Explorer, Netscape and Opera, and maybe other browsers, and
seems to be a simple failure to conform to the HTML standard for
handling forms.
Hope this helps someone.

I experience this problem as well.
* Happens both with and without enctype set for form
* Happens in IE6 and IE7, NOT in Firefox 1.5/2
* Changing form to GET works flawlessly
* Input can range from a few text fields (1-6) or a mix of text fields
and file fields, or just file fields (enctype set when file fields
exist) and POST data will come up empty
* Often times hitting reload and selecting to resubmit the form data
will have the POST data show up
* NO POST data will show up - I don't just lose some early fields
PHP 5.2.x (module), Apache 2.2.x, Windows XP SP2
This is a serious issue. Doesn't seem like anyone in this thread has
found any sort of solution. Please post (or GET, ha) if you have any
insight.
