HelloAll,

I can confirm this issue. I have the same problem on solaris, linux
platforms.
I've downloaded snapshot from 15082002, but it is the same on my Linux
RH7.3 platform.
Here are my configure options

 ./configure' '--with-apxs2=/internet/www/httpd-2.0.39/bin/apxs'
'--with-config-file-path=/internet/www/' '--disable-debug'
'--enable-sigchild' '--with-gdbm' '--with-zlib'
'--enable-track-vars'
'--enable-magic-quotes' '--with-dbase' '--with-gd'
'--with-ttf'
'--with-mysql=/opt/mysql/mysql' '--enable-ftp' '--with-gettext'
'--with-iconv=/usr/local' '--enable-trans-sid' '--with-pdflib'
'--enable-xml' '--enable-xslt' '--with-xslt-sablot'
'--with-dom'
'--with-pgsql=/opt/pgsql' '--enable-wddx'
'--with-pear=/internet/www/php/' '--enable-mailparse' '--with-xmlrpc'
'--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with-png-dir=/usr'

Sorry about the delay...
That snapshot (php4-200207310300) made no difference :-(

Tried with both Compaq cc and gcc

Try this snapshot:

i faintly remember a similar report regarding strange things happening
on True64 which has been fixed in CVS (most likely only head and not
the 4.2 branch for now?)

anybody out there with a better memory than i have?

When submitting a form with one field via post the variable contents
gets mangled...

*** foo.html ***
<form action="test.php" method="post">
        Test: <input type="text" name="id" value="bar">
        <input type="submit">
</form>

*** test.php ***
<?php print_r($_POST); ?> 

*** output ***
Array
(
    [id] => barid=bar
)

This bug can also be detected up by submitting the page
to a phpinfo().

Compiled under Tru64 5.1 using both Compaq and Gnu cc & make.   Have
tested using PHP 4.2.2 / Apache 2.0.39 and Apache 2.0.40 / PHP
4.3.0-Dev (200207100600 snapshot).

Configure Line:
./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-mysql

Bug appears to be limited to Tru64, as if I POST the data to a separate
linux machine running 4.2.2/2.0.39 then it works fine.

If I have more than one field in the form then everything is fine, or
if I use GET instead of POST then it also works.
