Just to know if it correc to see /etc/passwd for example, I did a simple script like this.

pag1.html
--------------------------------
<html>
<body>
<p>:-D</p>

<form action="ensena.php" method="POST">
<input type="text" name="file"><input type="submit">

</form>
</body>
</html>
----------------------------------
ensena.php
----------------------------------
<?
$archivo = $_POST['file'];
readfile($archivo);
?>
----------------------------------
so you can put "/etc/passwd" and the it is showed, just wanna know if this is correct..

Regards.

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions. 

Thank you for your interest in PHP.


You really need to ask this on some general mailing list..
