#18764 [NEW]: The last POST variable always has its last char missing

From: pasmal@zaz.net Operating system: NT 4 PHP version: 4.2.1 PHP Bug Type: Variables related Bug description: The last POST variable always has its last char missing The problem occurs with IIS 4 (NT 4, All SP) using the CGI version of PHP 4.2.1. Whenever a form is submitted using the post method, the last POST variable submitted loses its last character of content. The below code reproduces the problem: <?php echo " <form method=\"post\" action=\"$PHP_SELF\"> <input type=\"text\" name=\"textOne\" value=\"Test 123\"> <input type=\"text\" name=\"textTwo\" value=\"Test 123\"> <input type=\"text\" name=\"textThree\" value=\"Test 123\"> <input type=\"submit\" name=\"SubmitButton\" value=\"Test Post Bug\"> </form>"; phpinfo(); ?> In this casee, $_POST['textOne'] would return "Test 123", $_POST['textTwo'] would return "Test 123", and $_POST['textThree'] would return "Test 12" -- missing the final 3. The same code on IIS 5 doesn't produce the problem however I have run older PHP (4.0.6?) on NT 4 about 4-6months back without this problem.
