[users@httpd] Problem with Form Processing in PHP
Greetings, all.
I am relatively new to Apache and have been lurking here for a few
weeks. This is my first post.
I am having a problem processing forms in PHP. I know this is not a PHP
list, but I have investigated this problem from the PHP side, and I
can't find anything wrong (although I am relatively new to PHP, as well.)
I'll get to the symptoms in a second, but first let me give some quick
background. My production Web site is on a commercial server running
Apache 1.3.28 and PHP 4.3.3 on Linux. My site is one of many virtual
hosts served by this machine, and I do not have access to httpd.conf I
can use .htaccess files freely, though. I have a test server (my
desktop machine) running Apache 2.0.47 and PHP 4.3.3 on Windows XP Pro.
Obviously, I have access to httpd.conf on the test server.
Now, the symptom. Form processing works correctly on my test server,
but on the production server, the $_POST super-global array is not
populated with my form data. (If I submit using GET, the $_GET array is
empty.)
And finally, my question. Are there any Apache directives that could
cause this? I have looked through the documentation, but my
inexperienced eyes did not find anything.
I can post a small test form and action script if it will help.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Try using $HTTP_POST_VARS[] or $HTTP_GET_VARS[].
Review the php.ini file and the documentation of the variable
register_globals.
