Which is a common method to send data (and also the only way to send files).

Here's how to emulate $_DELETE: parse_str(file_get_contents('php://input'), $_DELETE); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-06-01 21:59:24] andreas dot s dot t dot jansson at gmail dot com If the only contents of the request body is the urlencoded "DELETE parameters" you can retrieve them by using file_get_contents("php://input"). It's not as clean as $_DELETE, but it's a workaround for now at least. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
