Every time I try to use POST to submit variables or files to a form it seems to add the mimetype to the variable. (GET seems to work fine, but then I can't upload files)

If I upload a Jpeg file, it adds "Content-Type: image/jpeg" to the variable. or if I submit a "TEXT AREA" to the script it adds "Content-Type: application/octet-stream" to the variable.

I also noticed that a normal TEXT variable gets some extra whitespace added to it in the script, so I had to use trim() to remove that.

I found a workaround for the file-upload bug somewhere :

function fix_php_upload_bug($tmp) { 
	$infile=fopen($tmp,"r"); // Open the file for the copy 
	$outfile=fopen("$tmp.new","w"); // create a new temp file 
	$header=fgets($infile,255); //get the 1st line (netscape sometimes doesn't add a Content-type line) 
	//if its more than just a \r\n sequence then 
	if (strlen($header)>2) $header=fgets($infile,255); //get next line also 
	while(!feof($infile)) { // Loop through the remaining file 
	$temp=fread($infile,128); 
	fwrite($outfile,$temp,strlen($temp)); //copying contents to new temp file 
	} 
	fclose($outfile); 
	fclose($infile); 
	copy("$tmp.new","$tmp"); //replace the original with our new bug fixed file 
	unlink("$tmp.new"); //and delete the new file 
	return filesize($tmp); //return a true file size 
	}
