Re: PHP 4.0 Bug #8208: Weird behaviour

>> a) it spits back extra (whitespace) characters. For instance, I connect and type >> "hi". I get back: >> PHP: You said "hi" >> PHP: You said "" >> This always happens, until I get stuck in a loop as above. This is normal, because read stops at \r and \n and telnet sends both. So it stops twice. >> b) it spits back part of the code. For instance, I changed the script to >> $talkback = "PHP: You said '" . urlencode($buf) . >> "'.\n"; >> I then get output like: >> PHP: You said >> 'foo%0D+%28true%29%3B%0A++++close+%28%24msgsock%29%3B%0A%7D+while+%28true%29%3B%0A%0Aclose+%28%24sock%29%3B%0A%3F%3E'. >> PHP: You said ''. >> This only happens on the first line of input. On the server side, I actually get the tail >> end of the PHP script output. >> c) occasionally it gets stuck in a loop. For instance, I connect and type "foo". >> I get back: >> PHP: You said "f" >> PHP: You said "oo" >> PHP: You said "oo" >> PHP: You said "oo" >> ...etc. >> This only seems to happen when I do the urlencode() testing above, and not until the 3rd or >> 4th line of input. This seems to be something weird because of the fact that read code is rather buggy. I'll commit a patch in a minute - please try it. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Zend Products Engineer stas@zend.com http://www.zend.com/ +972-3-6139665 ext.106
