Hi,

i am the author of that fileupload patch that was sent through the list one
week ago and was written to defeat Critical BUG #11998.

Cause i was into the fileupload code anyway, i analysed this problem and
came to the conclusion, that this reported behaviour of missing array vars
is a browser problem and not really a bug inside php.
example: the opera browser does not behave http conform when a filename is
not set on fileupload. It removes the "filename" parameter from the
Content-Disposition header. There is no way for php to guess that this is an empty
fileupload field and not f.e. a button or so.
So its up to the php script author to catch that situation.

Yours,
Ralf


PS: Today i applied my patch to 4.0.8-dev and the "many-fileupload-crashbug"
was no longer reproduceable.
