Re: a DOT or a BLANK SPACE

as I remeber, dots should be replaced by underscores not spaces .. at least if your input type is image and it's name is img then you would get two variables: img_x and img_y instead of what html4 spec specifies: img.x and img.y. Evevn if they get replaced then does it happen with $HTTP_POST_VARS[] array? I see now purpose of those names being replaced for this array only when they are populated as global variables. And still .. are you sure your webbrowser doesn't do that before t even makes to php?
