Thanks for all your help - have narrowed it down to the browser I am using. The problem lies with an apparently known issue with Apple's Safari in dealing with POST data. Sorry to have wasted your time, but I'm going to use PHP from now on as ASP just doesn't compare to PHP and this kind of support is wonderful. Bogus! Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-23 05:10:10] robin at newloop dot com ok, a simple test that passes a single value to php. >From HTML - no problem. http://www.monkeydo.co.uk/php/phptest.html >From Flash there is only a problem on the first call to the php. http://www.monkeydo.co.uk/php/phptest.swf Both call the same php script: <?php $test = stripslashes($_REQUEST["test"]); echo ("phptest=".$test) ?> I'm going to try looking at some flash advice on this as well, but I have been using ASP previously with no such problems from Flash, so not sure where the problem is occuring. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-22 12:51:26] robin at newloop dot com will try some tests from html pages as well as flash. The problem exists on both _REQUEST and _POST. It's the .last. character that goes missing. Will let you know what I find. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-22 12:47:51] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Try to make a simple script just to see if the bug is particular to the script you are using or any POST request. I find it extremely unusual that _POST contains correct data while _REQUEST does not, since _REQUEST is built using data from _POST. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-22 12:33:30] robin at newloop dot com no, still open. That Doh! was for something else. There is still a problem with the last POST variable requested missing it's last character. I could, of course just add an extra character, or dummy variable, but I'd rather know if I'm working around a feature or a bug, or if I'm simply doing something wrong? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-22 12:24:40] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bogus then :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
