RE: [PHP] BUG - Someone else please verify B4 I file
O.k. I understand that, now why would HTTP_POST_VARS be set if no data is
posted? Is this desired operation?

Remember, just because a variable is "set", it doesn't imply that the
variable has any data stored in it. In this case, while the
HTTP_POST_VARS array may be set, it does not contain any elements.
(It's size is zero.)
Hence, it's not included in phpinfo().

Re: [PHP] BUG - Someone else please verify B4 I file
Sure. It's an "environment variable", so it should always be set, even if it
is empty.
It's just a matter that all variables are declared, THEN their values are
assigned.
That's how C works, and that's what PHP is built in, so that's the behavior.
It makes it more standard with other applications, without loosing any real
functionality.
So it's annoying at times, but with just a switch-aroo of the functions you
are using, you can do the same stuff.

I've noticed that and had to rewrite several scripts when hosts upgraded
from PHP3 to PHP4. $HTTP_POST_VARS is considered set even when it is empty.

There seems to be a bug in php 4.0.4pl1, would someone please verify
this script below. If you paste this script into a file called bug.php
and
you just call it you will see "Http post Vars Set". However you will not
find that variable it in the output of PHPINFO. I tried this under
php4.0.2 and the behavior is as expected "Http Post Vars Not Set".
Can anyone confirm or disprove this?
Mike
bug.php
?
if (isset ($HTTP_POST_VARS)){
echo "Http Post Vars Set";
}
else {
echo "Http Post Vars Not Set";
}
phpinfo();
?
My environment:
PHP-4.0.4pl1 DSO
Solaris 8
Apache 1.3.14

For those that can't guess the solution to this problem I suspect this will do the trick: ! empty() instead of: isset() Or Jeff (Data Driven Design), did you use a different technique? -- Steve Werby President, Befriend Internet Services LLC http://www.befriend.com/ -- PHP General 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]
