New Comment:
Thanks for all your help - have narrowed it down to the
browser I am using. The problem lies with an apparently
known issue with Apple's Safari in dealing with POST
data.
Sorry to have wasted your time, but I'm going to use
PHP from now on as ASP just doesn't compare to PHP and
this kind of support is wonderful.
Bogus!

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.

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.

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.

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?
