I am running PHP 4.0.0 as a CGI with Roxen 2.0.50.  When POSTing form data to a PHP script, the last POST variable has a newline appended.  I got it to happen using this simple script that shows the POSTed variables URLencoded.  

<html>
<head><title>POST Test Form</title></head>
<body>
<form method=POST action=form_test.html>
  <input type=text name=FIELD1 size=10>
  <input type=text name=FIELD2 size=10>
  <input type=submit name=BUTTON value=Submit>
  <input type=button name=BUTTON2 value="JS Submit" onClick="this.form.submit()">
</form>
<p>POST variables, UrlEncoded to show possible garbage:</p>

<?
  if (is_array($HTTP_POST_VARS)):
    reset($HTTP_POST_VARS);
    while (list($var, $value) = each($HTTP_POST_VARS)):
      echo "$var: ".UrlEncode($value)."<br>";
    endwhile;
  endif;
?>
</body>
</html>

This could be a Roxen problem, but I'm reporting it both places in hopes someone can help!

Can?t reproduce this, Please verify that it?s still happening using the latest version of PHP (release 4.0.1pl2 or CVS).
 [2000-08-02 23:38 UTC] pete at byways dot org 
This still happens.  I'm using PHP CVS as of 8-2-2000, and Roxen 2.0.71 (latest from CVS).  However, I believe that this is a problem with Roxen, as it doesn't happen when running Apache.

What's the situation with this? 
Is it bug in PHP4 or in Roxen?

This must be a bug in Roxen.  It still occurs with latest PHP and Roxen, both using CGI and as a Pike module.

So it is roxen-bug. Not php4 problem. Closed.

We don't use CGI with Roxen (no cgi)

We have the same problem but happens somtimes in the first and and sometimes in the last var

So we always post 2 vars extra
eg: 0bug and zbug
