I seams like PHP does not care about the Content-length sent by the browser when decoding POST requests. And IE seams to add a trailing \r\n at the end of the POST string that is not included in the Content-length.

I seams like PHP does not care about the Content-length sent by the
browser when decoding POST requests. And IE seams to add a trailing \r\n
at the end of the POST string that is not included in the
Content-length.


Exmaple code:
<html>
<?php
    echo "a=".urlencode($_POST["a"])."<br>";
    echo "b=".urlencode($_POST["b"])."<br>";
?>
<form action="test2.php" method="post">
a:<input type="text" name="a"><br>
b:<input type="text" name="b"><br>
<input type="submit">
</form>
</html>

Posting "foo" in a and "bar" i b results in this output in IE:
a=foo
b=bar%0D%0A

and in Mozilla:
a=foo
b=bar

PHP 4.1.2 seams to handle it correctly

In what version it didn't work?
 [2002-03-07 17:21 UTC] napolium at sudac dot org 
The CVS version from yesterday (2002-03-06)

Tried the CVS version of today (20002-03-27) and the bug is still there. But I think it only happens when useing thttpd as SAPI. There is some code in sapi/thttpd/thttpd.c around line 195 that is suppose to fixit.

So this was thttpd specific? Reclassified.
 [2002-04-04 07:22 UTC] sniper@php.net 
updated subject.
