Hmm..is this documented somewhere? :)

On this page: http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php
it is said that those variables are only created after
succesful upload. So IMO, it works as documented.

Indeed. Bit of a pain though.

btw. Why not use the new true global vars: $_FILES[] for example? :)

Bc. On this point however, is there any plans to deprecate or remove the
HTTP_*_VARS arrays?
Please say no. :)


Remove, I don't think so. It would break too many existing sites.
Officially mark them as deprecated so that people use the other ones, yep.
