PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem
Bug description: $_POST superglobal not populated
Description:
------------
When submitting a html form using the post method, the superglobals $_POST
and $_REQUEST are not populated.
The $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA is.
When submitting using get, the $_GET and $_REQUEST work as expected. I
first noticed this in 5.1.0b2 and upgraded to 5.1.0b3 to see if it had
been fixed.
OS is win2K xp2
PHP Version 5.1.0b3
System Windows NT MINERVA 5.1 build 2600

Reproduce code:
---------------
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<?php
print("Request method: " . $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD']."<br />");
print("Dump of HTTP RAW POST DATA ". var_dump($HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA)."<br
/>");
print("Dump of POST Data" . var_dump($_POST)."<br />");
print("Dump of REQUEST Data" . var_dump($_REQUEST)."<br />");
?>
<form method="POST" action="login.php?action=login"
enctype="text/plain">
<input type="text" size="40" name="username" id="username"></input><br
/>
<input type="text" size="40" name="passwd" id="passwd"></input><br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="Login"></input>
</form>
</body>
</form>
Expected result:
----------------
I expect the var_dump($_POST)and var_dump($_REQUEST) to output the values
from the form elements. I verified that the form was using the post method
two ways: liveHTTPHeaders and $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD']
Actual result:
--------------
URL: http://projectmanager/login.php?action=login
Results:
Request method: POST
string(42) "username=Robb passwd=Robb submit=Login " Dump of HTTP RAW POST
DATA
array(0) { } Dump of POST Data
array(1) { ["action"]=> string(5) "login" } Dump of REQUEST Data
