My problem is that, in my earlier php instalation, I had register_globals=on, and now, with PHP5, it comes off by default: http://cn.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.external.php My solution was using this line before I need the value of $username $username = echo $_POST['username']; I hope it helps...

The solution was to specify the forms method as GET, and not as POST. It worked as well by not specifying any method, as this will choose GET as the default method. Use it like this: <form action="myFile.php" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="GET"> <input type="hidden" name="foo" value="bar" /> <input type="file" name="file" /> <input type="submit" value="Upload" /> </form> print_r($_GET) results in: Array ( [foo] => bar [file] => abc.zip ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-02-12 13:42:05] sri dot www at gmail dot com I am facing the similar problem. when i upload a file having more than the size specified in post_max_size variable, the $_POST variables are empty after form submission. If i increase the post_max_size variable more than the file trying to be uploaded then i can get the $_POST variables array. Is there any other way to fix this without relaying php configuration variables in order to get the $_POST variables as it is? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
