Description:
------------
In GET and POST variables, spaces and dots are replaced by underscores.

This is not sufficiently documented. Some documentation is here:
http://fr.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.external.php#language.variables.external.form.submit

Reproduce code:
---------------
/foo.php?a%20a=3



Actual result:
--------------
$_GET = Array ( [a_a] => 3 )

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
