It's a little bit crazy, but if you change the name using javascript, /* <input type="file" name="" size="50" onfocus="this.name='any'"> */ the page won't expire. Any ideas ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-08 12:14:56] sniper@php.net Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php4-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-latest.zip ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-08 11:17:37] volpato@adaptanet.com.br Try this : ********* BEGIN script.php ********** <?php session_cache_limiter('private'); session_start(); ?> <html> <body> <form method="post" action="script.php" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input type="submit" name="sub" value="submit"> <input type="file" name="any" size="50"> </form> <br> </body> </html> ************** END ************ Now, just click "sumbit" a couple times and try to use yor browser "Back" button. The page will expire. To solve this, just change the following line : <input type="file" name="any" size="50"> to : <input type="file" name="" size="50"> Remember that when calling this script again you must change the way you called it at the first time, i.e., http://server.com/script.php?something . So, click "submit" a few times again and click "Back". At this time the page won't expire. I tryed this with IE 6.0 / Windows XP and IE 5.5 / Windows 98. Thanks for your support ! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19818&edit=1
