From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.77 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.19-6.2.7.pptp.joey i586) Description of problem: php pages that try to use multipart/form-data encoding will end up with crlf data prepended to all data values. i noticed a redhat supplied patch in the source rpm, so i removed that and recompiled and things worked just fine. the patch claims to be trying to fix problems with unquoted variable names, but i haven't spent any time try to reproduce that problem. so that patch needs to be removed, or reworked. i noticed another bug report about php that just said that php didn't work anymore after the patches, so this could be the problem they saw. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: <html> <head> <title> foo </title> </head> <body> <? if ($foo != "") { echo "<pre>\n"; for ($i = 0; $i < strlen($foo); $i++) { echo ord(substr($foo, $i, 1)), "\n"; } echo "</pre>"; } ?> <form enctype="multipart/form-data" method=post> <input type=text name=foo length=40> <input type=submit> </form> </body> </html> Additional info:
There is a php errata that I've made thats in the works for the 7.x series and AS2.1, I'll be making a 6.2 errata this week but I cannot give an estimate on how long it will be in QA before release (the 7.x stuff has been in the QA queue for 5 weeks already).. Phil =--=
