Bug Type: *General Issues
Operating System: Windows XP / 2000
PHP Version: 4.2.3

On WinXP SP1 / Apache 1.3.27 / PHP 4.2.2(module) / testing locally with
IE6 SP1
This bug has changed topic it seems, but on the original matter I have
it too - tiny effective limits with $_POST and $_FILES.
By echoing getenv(CONTENT_LENGTH) I find a limit of 488 bytes from
text-only form data (above which $_POST returns empty). Using HTTP
upload by POST the cutoff is about 2.5k for a gif file. (Limit is
higher when not using SSL but I guess that is to be expected?)
I hope this is a useful contribution to a bug that seems to be taxing a
lot of folks.

I can also reproduce this problem with PHP 4.3.2.

I am experiencing the same problem under WinXP SP1, Apache 1.3.27, PHP
4.3.1 (installed as Apache Module). In my particular case I tried
installing postnuke and got stuck an the license screen (a large
textarea) which just won't get submitted using POST. I also experience
intermittent POST failures when submitting smaller forms (like the
first install screen which only asks to select a language).
What is the parameter in httpd.conf that should be checked? I would be
glad to assist in getting rid of this as it is very annoying.

I guess your problem is identical to bug #19460. Please confirm if
httpd.conf is edited correctly.

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
