I guess this directive is there to prevent unauthorised multipart submissions. For others experiencing this problem, check your ini file and ensure the following line exists: file_uploads = On ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-02 00:54:03] scott@datalink.net.au Forms with an enctype of 'multitype/form-data' do not register the POST variables. Here's how to reproduce: ----- Short Script Follows ----- <? print_r($HTTP_POST_VARS); ?> <form method=post enctype='multipart/form-data'> <input type='text' value='<? print $foo ?>' name='foo'> <input type='submit'> </form> ----- End Script ----- Run the script above. It is simple enough - it has a form that submits to itself, and then displays the HTTP_POST_VARS variable. When I remove the enctype='multipart/form-data' attribute from the form tag, the script works fine (i.e. the variable 'foo' appears). The enctype directive appears to surpress the variables. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=15827&edit=1
