[PHPLIB] $HTTP_POST_VARS empty in fallback mode From: Mike Green (Mike.Green <email protected>)
Date: 02/17/00

 I had earlier posted a question with the subject "NT/IIS: PHPLIB can't
set cookies, $HTTP_POST_VARS empty."

I now find that with Apache and either *nix or NT the $HTTP_POST_VARS
array is empty if the system is in fallback mode (i.e. if I set
$fallback_mode = "get"; and the browser does not accept cookies) --
with an apparent odd exception: the login process.

I've been trying for many hours now to untangle this, including
searching the archives and the code. And perhaps if I spend enough more
hours I will. But at this point I'm putting out an appeal for HELP ;-(
please!

I really need to be able to pass form entries by post, notget. And the
customer insists that they must be able to serve people who won't or
can't accept cookies. They are willing to use Apache instead of IIS
(their normal web server) if that is necessary.

The fact that the login process successfully passes variables using get
when in the fallback mode make me think that there is hope. But, as I
indicated, I've not been able to find my way through this on my own so
far...

Many, many thanks in advance!

Cheers? ;-)
