Digging through the mailinglist didn't bring me the answer to my $HTTP_POST_VARS problem, but it did teach me there are a lot of other people who have the same problem. This might be the solution: The problem is caused by the php_track_vars (as you might have expected), but there is an unexpected twist... Enable this in your php3.ini file and you're done. Unfortunately this isn't always an option. In those cases you can enable it by putting "<?php_track_vars?>" on the SECOND LINE of your php file. Putting it on a different line will only enable the $HTTP_GET_VARS variable, not $HTTP_POST_VARS (I did not test what it did to $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS). So put it on the SECOND line, if you put it somewhere else you'll only have half the solution.
