Bug #11573: Malformed HTTP response Header

From: jerome.delamarche@free.fr Operating system: Linux PHP version: 4.0.5 PHP Bug Type: *Session related Bug description: Malformed HTTP response Header I'm using the session*() functions and test them with a browser which refuses cookies. So I add "PHPSESSID=....." as a parameter of the requested url. For example, I call "qcmcreate.php?parm1=xxx&parm2=yyy&PHPSESSID=zzzzzzzzz". I noticed that the HTTP header returned by my script contain an extra line that confuses my client. The end of the HTTP header looks like: Content-Type: test/html \r\n \r\n xxx \r\n \r\n (\r\n means a "blank and empty line") What's wrong here are the "xxx\r\n\r\n" lines. Where "xxx" is up to 3 characters. These 3 lines make my client misinterpret the server response. If I make my browser accept cookies, the problem disappears. To make sure I did not echo anything, the 1st instruction of my "qcmcreate.php" script is "die;" What's wrong ? Thank you, Jerome Pl -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=11573&edit=1
