Description:
------------
I have a form with two radio buttons:
input type=radio name='cp' value='ASCII'
input type=radio name='cp' value='ANSI'

When the form is submitted with method POST, $_POST['cp'] is always 'ASCII' regardless of the selected button. $_REQUEST['cp'] is always correct, and so is $_GET['cp'] if the method is changed to GET.

This doesn't happen if the name of the control is different than 'cp'.

Using latest Apache 2.2.8

Sorry, stupid of me!

I had 

if ($_POST['cp'] = 'ASCII')

instead of 

if ($_POST['cp'] == 'ASCII')
