Could you post an example for content-type string so that when it gets fixed, someone has an example to add as a test. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-08-25 15:12:20] jocrutrisi at ibsats dot com Description: ------------ Seems like PHP cuts out attributes, including charset, from "Content-Type" when assigning the "type" attribute in file uploads: https://github.com/php/php-src/blob/c8aa6f3a9a3d2c114d0c5e0c9fdd0a465dbb54a5/main/rfc1867.c#L1180 That's information loss, this information is important when processing text uploads. I realize doing the right thing (assigning full type to "type") is now not an option for BC reasons. But I'd like to propose that we add another field to the $_FILES file entry, "charset", which contains the charset when it's there (and when it's not, the field can be missing or null). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=75121&edit=1
