Re: Weird variable issue encountered... help needed!

Hmm.. Are there any PHP settings that only applies to that vhost? Can you please try to run PHP as CGI few tries.. If the input is corrupt, that _could_ be caused by the Apache2 which accutually is marked as experimental... Basicly, this would get currupt? (wierd-var-test.php) <? if($action=='post') var_dump($_REQUEST); else { ?> <form action="wierd-var-test.php?action=post"> <input type="text" name="var"> <input type="submit"> </form> <? } ?> Or are there some other details I've missed? -- // DvDmanDT MSN: dvdmandt¤hotmail.com Mail: dvdmandt¤telia.com <gvarosky@conversent.com> skrev i meddelandet news:4B2D3B60A1C9D511BEDA00B0D0DF45F70C7698A5@EXCMRL03... > This problem only seems to be happening on one of the virtual hosts on this > system, and I cannot seem to figure out just what it is. > > I have a simple form posting to search.php, with a text input field, with a > name of 'search'.
