Forms that worked with earlier version of PHP are now garbling the text that gets posted through textarea form elements.  The text must have a line return in order to be garbled (i.e., shorter entries don't get garbled).

This may be a problem with PHP 4.2.1 and Apache 2.0, but I thought it might be helpful if you're trying to fully support Apache 2.0 eventually.

I'm going to try downgrading Apache.

Any news on this? And can you provide a short reproducing script if it does not work correctly?

Any script that took text in through a textarea form element was having the problem described.  I downgraded to the latest 1.x of Apache and things are fine now.  The scripts were nondescript, simply taking post data and putting it into a MySQL database.  I checked the text before it was put into the database and it already bore the marks of being garbled.

Please get Apache 2.0.36 and this snapshot of PHP:

http://snaps.php.net/php4-latest.tar.gz

And let us know if this problem still exists.
