Bug description: Session ID lost when form-tag split
Description:
------------
For some reasons i can not use cookies for session handling and therfore
use the only the transparent session id, which works fine. But recently i
got the following problem:
I have a form which has different action based on a variable ($ref). With
the first code snippet
(output of the Form-Tag as one string)
it worked fine. But with the second snippet (Form-Tag is split) the
session id is somehow lost.
Both ways the form worked and all the variables are passed correctly.
Regards
Andreas Schmitter
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php if ($ref=='actlist') {
echo '<form name="goback" method="post" action="act_list.php">';
} else {
echo '<form name="goback" method="post" action="user_home.php">';
}
?>
<input type="hidden" name="ref" value="<?php echo $ref ; ?>">
<input type="submit" class="button" name="back" value="<?php echo
$msg['cancel'];?>">
</form>
----------------------------------------------------------
<form name="goback" method="post"
<?php if ($ref=='actlist') {
echo ' action="act_list.php">';
} else {
echo ' action="user_home.php">';
}
?>
<input type="hidden" name="ref" value="<?php echo $ref ; ?>">
<input type="submit" class="button" name="back" value="<?php echo
$msg['cancel'];?>">
</form>
Expected result:
----------------
