[clug] PHP5 - POST variables not being sent

Sat Sep 30 17:31:37 GMT 2006

Changed the code to method="POST" but it still doesn't work.  I had a
look at the log file and this is the only line that is added:

61.9.204.9 - - [01/Oct/2006:03:14:24 +1000] "POST /post.php HTTP/1.1"
200 376 "<destination url" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1;
en-US; rv:1.8.0.7) Gecko/20060909 Firefox/1.5.0.7"

The following line is entered into the log file if I use GET instead of
POST:

61.9.204.9 - - [01/Oct/2006:03:25:56 +1000] "GET
/post.php?1=1&2=2&3=3&4=4&5=5&submit=Submit+Query HTTP/1.1" 200 469
"<destination url>" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US;
rv:1.8.0.7) Gecko/20060909 Firefox/1.5.0.7"

where 61.9.204.9 is the IP address of my internet connection.

If anyone has any ideas about this, please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Tim

Just some really picky HTML stuff here that could, but probably isn't
the
problem...

Method="POST" rather than method=POST

It seems strange that it would work on one server, but not the next. I'd
say
check some log files perhaps?

Hi all,

I have recently moved a website to a new server, and now no $_POST
variables are being sent.  I have set up a test script as follows:

<?PHP
            echo "<HTML><BODY>";
            echo "<pre>";
            print_r($_POST);
            echo "</pre>";

?>

<FORM method=POST action="<?PHP echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>">
            <INPUT type="TEXT" name="1"><BR>
            <INPUT type="TEXT" name="2"><BR>
            <INPUT type="TEXT" name="3"><BR>
            <INPUT type="TEXT" name="4"><BR>
            <INPUT type="TEXT" name="5"><BR>
            <INPUT type="SUBMIT" name="submit"><BR>
</FORM>
</BODY></HTML>

When I run the script from my computer, I get the output:

Array
(
    [1] => var1
    [2] => var2
    [3] => var3
    [4] => var4
    [5] => var5
    [submit] => Submit Query
)

However, when I run this from the new server, I always get

Array
(
)

Any ideas anyone?  $_GET variables work fine, as do $_SESSION variables.

Thanks in advance

Tim
