#24753 [Opn]: missing character in POST data

ID: 24753 User updated by: robin at newloop dot com Reported By: robin at newloop dot com Status: Open Bug Type: HTTP related Operating System: Win XP Pro 2002 SP1 PHP Version: 4.3.2 New Comment: ok, a simple test that passes a single value to php. From HTML - no problem. http://www.monkeydo.co.uk/php/phptest.html From Flash there is only a problem on the first call to the php. http://www.monkeydo.co.uk/php/phptest.swf Both call the same php script: <?php $test = stripslashes($_REQUEST["test"]); echo ("phptest=".$test) ?> I'm going to try looking at some flash advice on this as well, but I have been using ASP previously with no such problems from Flash, so not sure where the problem is occuring. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-22 12:51:26] robin at newloop dot com will try some tests from html pages as well as flash. The problem exists on both _REQUEST and _POST. It's the .last. character that goes missing. Will let you know what I find. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-22 12:47:51] iliaa@php.net Try to make a simple script just to see if the bug is particular to the script you are using or any POST request. I find it extremely unusual that _POST contains correct data while _REQUEST does not, since _REQUEST is built using data from _POST. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-22 12:33:30] robin at newloop dot com no, still open. That Doh! was for something else. There is still a problem with the last POST variable requested missing it's last character. I could, of course just add an extra character, or dummy variable, but I'd rather know if I'm working around a feature or a bug, or if I'm simply doing something wrong? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-22 12:24:40] derick@php.net Bogus then :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-07-22 12:10:01] robin at newloop dot com again, big thanks! register globals is Off Worked out the space thing. Doh! had a line specifically adding it: $fileData = " "; ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
