Description:
------------
I upgraded from PHP 4.3.4 to PHP 5.0 RC3 yesterday. When I tried to run
the script that check for the query string and then refresh to the
page, the query string return the invalid value. This behavior I found
only in PHP 5.0 RC3
I'll show you the result with these thing:
echo $QUERY_STRING;
isset($QUERY_STRING);
$QUERY_STRING == "";
For example, assume that the script URL is
http://somewhere.com/index.php
If I call it like this: http://somewhere.com/index.php?foo
echo $QUERY_STRING; // show foo
isset($QUERY_STRING); // return true
$QUERY_STRING == ""; // return false
But, here is the problem. If I call it like this:
http://somewhere.com/index.php
echo $QUERY_STRING; // show ""(nothing)
isset($QUERY_STRING); // return true << unexpected
$QUERY_STRING == ""; // return true
The code that I use for test will be in the next section.
My PHP configuration based on php.ini-dist. I changed register_global
to be On, and then add php_mysql & php_mysqli extension to it.
Reproduce code:
---------------
if(isset($QUERY_STRING))
{
echo "Your query string is defined\n";
}
if($QUERY_STRING == "")
{
echo "Your query string is null\n";
}
if($QUERY_STRING == " ")
{
echo "Your query string contain just a space\n";
}
echo "Here is your query string: '".$QUERY_STRING."'";
Expected result:
----------------
Your query string is null
Here is your query string: ''
Actual result:
--------------
Your query string is defined
Your query string is null
Here is your query string: ''
