New Comment:
I did not report that bug, but have the problem with post variables.
I am using PHP 4.2.3-Win32 as a module for Apache 1.3.27., Windows
2000.
When POST is used like in:
--------------------------------------
<form action="" method="post" name="message">
<p>E-mail: <input name="p_email" value="" type="text" size="50">
</p>
<p>Sibscribe options:<br>
<select multiple name="p_s[]">
<option value="sub_news_company">Company news</option>
<option value="sub_news_employees">News from Employees</option>
<option value="sub_proposals">Proposals</option>
</select>
</p>
<p>
<input name="Input" type="reset" value=" Reset ">
<input name="Input" type="submit" value=" Sibscribe ">
</p>
</form>
<hr>
<?php
if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['p_s']) {
$p_s=$HTTP_POST_VARS['p_s'];
echo '<pre>';
print_r($p_s);
echo '</pre>';
}
?>
--------------------------------------
After submitting this form (2 last options selected) I got:
--------------------------------------
Array
(
[0] => news_employees
[1] => proposals
)
--------------------------------------
Values of the post array are missing 4 left letters!
I've experimented different ways but result is the same: when post
variable is array - values always trimmed by 4 left letters.
regards,
Yegor

Additional info:
I am NOT using Apache. The used web server passes POST data untouched
to the CGI (here the php executable).

I did not report that bug, but have the same problem. To be more
specific:
I am using the command line version of PHP 4.2.3-Win32. But the problem
still exists under php 4.3.0.
The bug (or misconfiguration?) is also reproducable with command line
version of PHP4.2.3 under Linux.
When POST is used (in conjunction with multipart/form-data)the POST
data is not read by PHP.
Writing an own funtion to read the POST data will let you read the POST
data.
I could setup an URL to reproduce it and with a <? phpinfo(); ?> page
to display how the variables are set. (I could also paste it here...)
regards
Stefan

I am currently experincing some problems with missing post form data.
There seem two be 2 problems:
1) When a variable is long (for example a textarea and lots of text is
in it), the post data is not sent.
2) Sometimes even with small textarea, the post is still not outputed,
but if you hit refresh and click reload post data, it sometimes works.
I have also set the max post size to 20MB which should be plenty for
just text.
I seem to have this problems on all browsers / computers.
Ay ideas?
Thanks
Joel
