From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: Windows 2000 Server PHP version: 4.0.4pl1 PHP Bug Type: Variables related Bug description: empty POST variables when file uploads disabled I'm not sure if this is a bug or a feature, but I came across it while thinking that having GET and POST variables together were causing a problem. Turns out it was POST variables not being passed when file uploads were disabled and the enctype was multipart. Here's my synopsis: If I have these two files.... testform.php: <form action="testout.php?q=1" method="post"> <input type="text" name="f"> <input type="submit"> </form> and testout.php: <? echo "q: $q<br>"; echo "f: $f<br>"; ?> then, say I request testform.php in a browser and type "hello" in the field. I get back this when I submit... q: 1 f: hello looks good so far, but if I then change the form to look like this: <form action="testout.php?q=1" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> then I re-request the page and type "hello" in the field, and submit...I get this: q: 1 f: *oops*...looks like the multipart/form-data encoding type makes the form variables go away. Interesting...but changing the POST to a GET seems to work. What if I don't want the variables in the query string, though? I check the php.ini and discover that file uploads are disabled. I enable file uploads and voila! it works!!! now I get... q: 1 f: hello regardless of whether I use POST or GET. Since file uploads were disabled, I assumed that file widgets would not be allowed to pass data, but I didn't think that having a form with multipart/form-data as the encoding type would disable POSTing in general when file uploads were disabled. So...is it a feature, or is it a bug? -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=10533&edit=1 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
