PHP 4.0 Bug #8906 Updated: Image submit error with X and Y strings

ID: 8906 Updated by: derick Reported By: menno@b10m.net Old-Status: Open Status: Closed Bug Type: Unknown/Other Function Assigned To: Comments: This are not random numbers, this are the exact coordinates on the image where you clicked on it. Can you if this is the case? Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-01-25 10:12:21] menno@b10m.net It seems that the added x and y values are the x and y coordinates of your mouse on the image *doh*. Kinda weird to use a default $x and $y for that though. -- M. J. Blom menno@b10m.net --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-01-25 10:07:21] menno@b10m.net When you have a form with a fieldname 'x' and/or 'y' and you put an image as submit button, instead of the usual submit button, PHP will add random numbers to it: Small source code to reproduce this error: ------------------------------------------------------- <?php if(!$x && !$y && !$z) { $x="undefined"; $y=$x; $z=$x; } print "X is: <strong>$x</strong><br>n"; print "Y is: <strong>$y</strong><br>n"; print "Z is: <strong>$z</strong><br>n"; ?> <hr> <form action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF;?>"> X: <input type="text" name="x" size="3"><br> Y: <input type="text" name="y" size="3"><br> Z: <input type="text" name="z" size="3"><br> <br> <input type="submit" value="search"><br> <input type="image" src="search.jpg" alt="search"> </form> ------------------------------------------------------- As you can see, the value's will be the same when you hit the original submit button, but the values will differ when you hit the image. I have created a similar form in Perl (CGI), but that does not seem to have the same akward result. Kind Regard, -- M. J.
