Bug #12608 Updated: $REDIRECT_QUERY_STRING isn't parsed into $HTTP_GET_VARS

ID: 12608 Updated by: andy Reported By: havardda-dev@orakel.ntnu.no Old Status: Open Status: Feedback Bug Type: Variables related Old Operating System: Debian "potato" GNU/Linux Operating System: Debian potato GNU/Linux PHP Version: 4.0.5 New Comment: I don't know if I read this right, because it was a bit confusing, but I'll take a shot. $HTTP_GET_VARS parses the query string for the current page... I can't think of a good example right now, but it could mess things up if REDIRECT_QUERY_STRING broke up into HTTP_GET_VARS. If you wanted to do something like that try a script like the following... [not tested] <? $splitby=split("&",$HTTP_SERVER_VARS["REDIRECT_QUERY_STRING"]); for ($i=0;$i<count($splitby);$i++){ $splitfurther=split("=",$splitby[$i]); $$splitfurther[0]=$splitfurther=[1]; } This should put the REDIRECT_QUERY_STRING into variables, like if the redirect query string was foo=bar, then your script should parse it so that $foo="bar"; Does this help? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-08-06 18:57:51] havardda-dev@orakel.ntnu.no The summary field really says it all: Upon writing a customized 404 script, I stumbled upon the fact that the $HTTP_SERVER_VARS["REDIRECT_QUERY_STRING"] didn't break up into $HTTP_GET_VARS, even though one would expect it to. Is there a reason to this? I tried going through the bug database and the email archives, but I didn't seem to find anything similar. My apologies if this still is a second bug report, or if there's some perfectly valid explanation given somewhere. Thanks for a great tool, by the way. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=12608&edit=1
