From: tavin dot cole at gmail dot com Operating system: any PHP version: 5.2.6 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: no ini setting to inhibit conversion of dots to underscores in $_REQUEST
Description: ------------ It's well known that PHP converts dots to underscores for incoming variable names. This is very frustrating when writing modern PHP code with register_globals off and using $_REQUEST etc. instead. It's been stated this will not be changed due to BC issues. Why not introduce an INI setting to inhibit this behavior? Thanks for your consideration. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=45272&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=45272&r=mysqlcfg
