Please do not submit the same bug more than once. An existing bug report already describes this very problem. Even if you feel that your issue is somewhat different, the resolution is likely to be the same. Thank you for your interest in PHP. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-10-14 15:03:32] efbiaiinzinz at hotmail dot com Description: ------------ reposting http://bugs.php.net/?id=42960 since it was marked falsely as bogus and referring to another bug which is also marked as bogus, where actually PHP form variable importing is incorrect and data gets lost(more accurately, submitting image x coordinate gets lost) it could be parsed by hand from HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA, bt it does not get populated in case of file uploads, so not much help quick fix for all those problems listed in previously mentioned bugreport image[field].x=1 image[field].y=2 insert into POST/GET array "image" => array() if not exists, insert into it "field_x" => 1 and "field_y" => 2 image[field][].x=1 image[field][].y=2 image[field][].x=3 image[field][].y=4 find first input from raw post data insert into POST/GET array "image" => array() if not exists, into it insert "field" => array() if not exists now the tricky part find the [] part see that it has .x create new entry into "field" => array() "0_x" => 1 find [] in next line, see that it's .y, use same index as before and create "0_y" => 2 find [] in next line, see that it has .x, increment index and insert "1_x" => 3 and after that with same index 1 "1_y" => 4 so in the end array would be "image" => array( "field" => array( "0_x" => 1, "0_y" => 2, "1_x" => 3, "1_y" => 4 ) ) It would help to actually think about the problem that seems to be quite severe (variables get lost which could actually be retrieved quite normally with some better logic) before setting status to bogus and referring to manual and some other similar bug report which is resolved with hack instead of actual fix easist fix of all would be to make code accept image[field].x=1 image[field].y=2 and convert to "image" => array( "field_x" => 1, "field_y" => 2, ) Quoting: 'PHP has no idea what to do with "image[key].x" so the ".x" is stripped away and the "image" array created with the index "key".' Are you or are you not the ones responsible for fixing bugs and odd behavuiours in PHP instead of just saying that it currently acts buggy and that you have no intention about fixing it ???? Sorry for the big comment, but when I tried shorter before, the bug got reported as bogus without any further investigation.
