Yes -- take a look at the variables_order directive
(http://uk.php.net/manual/en/configuration.directives.php#ini.variables-order) -- it's not
immediately clear from its description that this is a relevant setting, but on the "Predefined
variables" page (http://uk.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.predefined.php), the last
sentence in the first section (just above the "PHP Superglobals" heading) says:
"If certain variables in variables_order are not set, their appropriate PHP predefined
arrays are also left empty."
It's clear from this that if your variables_order setting does not include "P", the
$_POST array will not be populated in your scripts.
HTH
Cheers!
