#24145 [NEW]: Problem using POST request

From: przemek at hexacom dot biz Operating system: Linux Mandrake 9.0 PHP version: 4.3.1 PHP Bug Type: HTTP related Bug description: Problem using POST request Description: ------------ Situation is very simple, in html file im creating a form. In this form is only one field i.e. named "alias", the field has value "abc", form method is "POST" and action "script.php". There is a submit button too. When the script.php gets a request it contacentates three values: variable value, variable name and again variable value. It's look like this: "abcalias=abc" The tip is to add one more i.e. hidden field, but i think it is something wrong. Regards. PS.Sorry for may english. Reproduce code: --------------- ---- index.htm ---- <form action=script.php method=POST> Something<input type=text name=alias> <input type=submit value=GO> </form> ----- script.php ---- <? echo $_POST["alias"]; ?> Expected result: ---------------- abc Actual result: -------------- abcalias=abc -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=24145&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24145&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24145&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24145&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24145&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24145&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24145&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24145&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24145&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24145&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24145&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24145&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24145&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24145&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24145&r=gnused
