Re: form posting to a fake page

$_POST[] variables do not exist on a redirected page; that's the problem! ----Original Message Follows---- From: Miguel Cruz <mnc@stoic.net> To: "[ rswfire ]" <rswfire@hotmail.com> CC: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP] form posting to a fake page Date: Wed, 17 Apr 2002 15:56:32 -0500 (CDT) On Wed, 17 Apr 2002, [ rswfire ] wrote:

It would still require some knowledge of the posted data. If someone clicks

a submit button, and it is posting to a page that doesn't really exist, then

when the index.php file gets called as a 404 errordocument, the posted variables are already lost, so it wouldn't be possible to access the posted

variables in any fashion. The only possibility might be if Apache had some

way of dealing with this scenario and I am not that familiar with how Apache

works. And so, that leaves me with the only workaround I do know, post to a

page that does exist! It's just not the ideal solution, but it works.

Well, depending on the quantity of posted data, you could go through $_POST[] and turn them into GET args and pass them along to the appropriate page (not that I really understand what you're trying to do). miguel _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com
