Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-07-08 17:17:40] treboralmasy1 at gmail dot com Description: ------------ When a form is submitted with an empty value $_POST does not add an empty key. Instead it automatically filters it. If data is entered $_POST behaves like normal (populates key and value). Ie: when no code is entered: file_get_contents('php://input'): username= $_POST: array() when username IS entered: file_get_contents('php://input'): username=test $_POST: array( username=>test) Test script: --------------- <form action="" method="POST"> <input type="text" name="username" /> <input type="submit" value="click"> </form> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70028&edit=1
