apache 1.3.xx php 4.x.x windows nt Hi everybody. Maybe i didn't understand well your submission but, if the problem is that u are not able to use get or post method, as i wasn't, i hope what i discoverd may help u. In fact, starting from php 4.2 version u have in php.ini $track_vars switched on. so, if u use a form like that: <form method=post action=some_file.php> <input type=text name=antonio> <input type=submit> </form> in some_file.php u can read posted values : ... <?=$HTTP_POST_VARS[antonio]?> ... . So, if u use get method, change post with get. I was gettin crazy changin a lot of cvs of php. But u do not need it, because that's the solution.

Nothing. Even simple method='post' return nothing!!! A solution to this problem is imperative!!! When I used 4.0... I had truncated POST vars. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-17 02:11:58] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dup of #17958 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-16 15:46:23] jmax01 at hotmail dot com Hi, I think there are still issues with POST variables. I have tested using the following platforms: Platform 1: OS: Windows XP Professional Webserver: Apache/2.0.40 PHP: 4.2.3 Platform 2: OS: Windows 2000 Professional Webserver: Apache 2.0.40 PHP: 4.2.3 Platform 3: OS: Windows 2000 Professional Webserver: Apache 1.3.26 PHP: 4.2.3 I use a custom http client to connect to the http server. The http requests are multipart/form-data. A sample request: POST /cgi-bin/XXXXXXX HTTP/1.1 Authorization: Basic XXXXXXXX Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=XXXssxvnjhpdqdxvcrastvybcwvmgnykrXXX User-Agent: Java1.4.0 Host: XXX.XXX.XXX.X:XXX Accept: text/html, image/gif, image/jpeg, *; q=.2, */*; q=.2 Connection: keep-alive Content-length: 142 XXXssxvnjhpdqdxvcrastvybcwvmgnykrXXX Content-Disposition: form-data; name="fieldName" fieldValue XXXssxvnjhpdqdxvcrastvybcwvmgnykrXXX-- The $_POST array is empty. I have tested against IBM HTTP Server/V5R2M0 and have not had a probelm retrieving multipart/form-data POST variables using IBM REXX CGI Parse. I am pretty sure my header is valid.
