Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-05-07 08:39:28] philip@php.net When $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA exists is up for some debate. When this issue is tackled also refer to php://input as the preferred method. Here: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=96437871200002&r=1&w=2 Also, it looks like chaz attempted to use $_SERVER as well which of course will never work but anyway that's of no matter... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-05-06 18:40:58] chaz_meister_rock at yahoo dot com agreed, this really needs to be in the docs, because without some explanation, it sure sounds like a bug (with a setting like ALWAYS_populate_raw_post_data). does this mean that there is no way to get to a full enctype="multipart/form-data" HTTP request using php? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-05-06 03:02:56] sniper@php.net HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA is NOT set for multipart forms. Would be nice if this was said in the manual too. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-05-05 03:10:34] chaz_meister_rock at yahoo dot com Description: ------------ $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA is empty when using a form with enctype="multipart/form-data" set. php.ini contains always_populate_raw_post_data = On this issue looks similar to: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=23765 Reproduce code: --------------- <?php echo $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA; ?> <form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post"> <input type="text" name="it" value="groovy" /> <input type="file" name="upFile" /> <input type="submit" /> </form> Expected result: ---------------- it=groovy&upFile= Actual result: -------------- Notice: Undefined index: HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32948&edit=1
