#29880 [NEW]: trans-sid randomly not added to forms

From: r dot wilczek at web-appz dot de Operating system: Windows XP Prof. PHP version: 5.0.0 PHP Bug Type: Session related Bug description: trans-sid randomly not added to forms Description: ------------ Sometimes I encounter the strange behaviour that PHP does not add an <input type="hidden" name="PHPSESSID" value="6745etcetc" /> in forms having additional whitespaces in the <form>-tag. I like to have forms readable and often write them like shown in tmplt_button_form.php below. Sometimes it works; sometimes I have to strip all additional whitespaces from the opening <form>-tag to make PHP rewriting the HTML-output. Switching output-buffering on and off did not change the effect. Had the same phenomenon in PHP 4 before. So my workaround for now is not to write <form method="post" action="[-- URL --]"> but <form method="post" action="[-- URL --]"> - Roland Reproduce code: --------------- // The method ... function HTMLButton($url, $action, $comment) { $file = 'templates/tmplt_button_form.php'; $tmplt = implode('', file($file)); $replace = array( '[-- URL --]' => htmlentities($url), '[-- ACTION --]' => htmlentities($action), '[-- COMMENT --]' => htmlentities($comment) ); echo strtr($tmplt, $replace); } -- The file tmplt_button_form.php: -- <form method="post" action="[-- URL --]"> <input type="hidden" name="myaction" value="[-- ACTION --]"> <input type="submit" value="[-- COMMENT --]"> </form> Expected result: ---------------- <form method="post" action="http://www.default.com"><input type="hidden" name="PHPSESSID" value="6745135150906f4748b27d0cbe43d99a" /> <input type="hidden" name="myaction" value="someAction"> <input type="submit" value="Just do it!"> </form> Actual result: -------------- <form method="post" action="http://www.default.com"> <input type="hidden" name="myaction" value="someAction"> <input type="submit" value="Just do it!"> </form> -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=29880&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29880&r=float
