From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: RedHat PHP version: 4.2.0 PHP Bug Type: Variables related Bug description: Should allow dots in global variables name
I think that in the global $_POST that PHP should not convert my "." to "_" automatically. Eg. I had a form and posted a form element with id="calendar.defaultview", and I'd like to be able to access that with $_POST["calendar.defaultview"]. I realize that it would be inconsistent with the variable name if register_globals is on, but now that its being deprecated, this deserves another look. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=21925&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21925&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21925&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21925&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21925&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21925&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21925&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21925&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21925&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21925&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21925&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21925&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21925&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21925&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21925&r=gnused
