Thanks for your email, these are with POST.
The whole thing is really confusing me now... As it works fine if I save the
word document as a text file and copy and paste from that in a different
text editor, if I reopen the text file in Word the same problem occurs.
I am not sure if this is because something strange is being copied from the
word document that is making PHP choke on the solaris server but not the OSX
machine.
Anybody have any ideas where I should direct my further investications??
