PHP version: 5.2.5
PHP Bug Type: Unknown/Other Function
Bug description: $_GET/$_POST variables
Description:
------------
When the name assigned to a form field contains such characters as '.' or
space(' '), the $_GET/$_POST[$name] will not catch the contents of the
field using that same name, instead you have to substite '.' or ' ' with
'_' in the $_GET/$_POST function.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$field = "text.field";
if(isset($_GET[$field]))
{
echo $_GET[$field];
}
?>
<form method="get">
<label>
<input type="text" name="text.field" id="text field" value="WORKS"/>
</label>
<p>
<label>
<input type="submit" name="button" id="button" value="Submit" />
</label>
</p>
</form>
Expected result:
----------------
WORKS
Actual result:
--------------
nothing shows up, however changing $field = "text.field" to $field =
"text_field" will display correct results.
