Which web version of Apache?

I don't see anything on the PHP side of things that would make this
behave differently based on the request type.

In PHP 4.3.0 in safe mode the $PHP_AUTH_* variables do not exist
anymore. It is recommended to use $REMOTE_USER instead.

The suggestion that $REMOTE_USER still works and can be used in Safe
mode is only party true. I noticed that this variable is filled with
the username supplied by the external basic auth mechanism (.htaccess)
unless you are in a script which has been called by a <form action=XXX
method="post">.
With method="get" it works OK.

I need the $REMOTE_USER to lookup users from the database and find
their ID in the DB. The method="get" option is a workaround, but this
does not work in upload scripts, which has to use "post".

Is this a new bug?
