ID: 41180 Updated by: tony2001@php.net Reported By: andrew dot nagy at villanova dot edu -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: *General Issues Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 5.2.1 New Comment: Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP. PHP has nothing to do with mime types.

We tested with numerous PDF files as well as on 2 seperate servers. One Fedora Linux and one RedHat Linux. Both used v5.1.6 initially, we then upgraded to 5.2.1 with the same problem. Reproduce code: --------------- <form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input type="file" name="myfile"> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit"> </form> <?php if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { print_r($_FILES); } ?> Expected result: ---------------- Array ( [myfile] => Array ( [name] => bdbxml.pdf [type] => application/pdf [tmp_name] => /tmp/php9OEgjj [error] => 0 [size] => 145709 ) ) Actual result: -------------- Array ( [myfile] => Array ( [name] => bdbxml.pdf [type] => application/x-pilot [tmp_name] => /tmp/php9OEgjj [error] => 0 [size] => 145709 ) ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=41180&edit=1
