ID: 12157 Updated by: zeev Reported By: eschmitt@greyzone.com Status: Open Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: red hat linux 6.1 PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: Do you have a big script (but self-contained) that causes this problem? Without some kind of a reproducing script, we can't do much about it. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-07-13 20:10:04] eschmitt@greyzone.com When copying a single quote from MS Word into a form field, with Content-Type set as ISO-8859-1 will cause some random form variables to disappear on the submission page. I haven't been able to find a pattern to why this has happened. There are several pages where it happens consistently, and some that it doesn't happen on. The quote gets encoded as &#8217 when run through htmlspecialchars. Each page has several hidden fields a couple text fields and text areas. I couldn't write a small script to duplicate the problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=12157&edit=1
