Bug description: trans-sid randomly not added to forms
Description:
------------
Sometimes I encounter the strange behaviour that PHP does not add an
<input type="hidden" name="PHPSESSID" value="6745etcetc" />
in forms having additional whitespaces in the <form>-tag.
I like to have forms readable and often write them like shown in
tmplt_button_form.php below.
Sometimes it works; sometimes I have to strip all additional whitespaces
from the opening <form>-tag to make PHP rewriting the HTML-output.
Switching output-buffering on and off did not change the effect. Had the
same phenomenon in PHP 4 before.
So my workaround for now is not to write
<form method="post"
action="[-- URL --]">
but
<form method="post" action="[-- URL --]">

Reproduce code:
---------------
// The method ...
function HTMLButton($url, $action, $comment)
{
$file = 'templates/tmplt_button_form.php';
$tmplt = implode('', file($file));
$replace = array(
'[-- URL --]' => htmlentities($url),
'[-- ACTION --]' => htmlentities($action),
'[-- COMMENT --]' => htmlentities($comment)
);
echo strtr($tmplt, $replace);
}
-- The file tmplt_button_form.php: --
<form method="post"
action="[-- URL --]">
<input type="hidden"
name="myaction"
value="[-- ACTION --]">
<input type="submit"
value="[-- COMMENT --]">
</form>
Expected result:
----------------
<form method="post"
action="http://www.default.com"><input type="hidden"
name="PHPSESSID" value="6745135150906f4748b27d0cbe43d99a" />
<input type="hidden"
name="myaction"
value="someAction">
<input type="submit"
value="Just do it!">
</form>
Actual result:
--------------
<form method="post"
action="http://www.default.com">
<input type="hidden"
name="myaction"
value="someAction">
<input type="submit"
value="Just do it!">
</form>
