Hi,
I got a slight problem with a Form that doesn't correctly transmits its
data
correctly under entering some special data.
I put together an example to get hold of the problem but so far I do not
have a clue
why this doesn't work.
Be great if someone got an idea.
Here is the sample script I put together to see what actually gets
transferred when the Form is
submitted.
File: ftest.php
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Form Test Page</title>
<META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
<form action=ftest.php method='post' encoding='text/plain'>
Enter a text: <input name=TheText type=text size=10 maxlength=10><input
type=submit>
</form>
<?php
import_request_variables("gPC","FORM");
echo "Data from last request:<br>";
echo "POST:<br>";
print_r ($_POST);
echo "<br>GET:<br>";
print_r ($_GET);
echo "<br>Cookies:<br>";
print_r ($_COOKIE);
?>
</body>
</html>
Pretty simple and straightforward.
The statistics page I currently work on requires to enter a Groupname.
All but one groupname so far get accepted.
The one that does not get accepted is
<Group>
including the "<>"
If I enter this into the form and submit the data doesnt get forwarded
into the post data.
Even changing the encoding did not work.
I tried >< that did work strange enough
even <> alone works but as soon something is in between <> nothing gets
into the post-data.
Does anybody have an explanation?
Maybe I overlooke something.
