We all know that things could be changed and as systems
are updated they are changed. However, we are
presented with thousands lines of code written for
register globals.
We cannot update to the 4.3.* series as long as this
bug exists and we are not the only ones effected.
If you could give a hint where the bug is, I will look
at it. After all this is a piece of code which worked
in version < 4.3.1

This is due to fixing some other bug and for the compromise
between having either that not fixed or this.
It's much safer and recommended that you use the $_FILES and $_POST
variables always anyway.

Assuming you have register variables enabled.
With 4.3.1, when you post from this HTML
<HTML>
<BODY><H1>filename and extra</H1>
<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="test.php" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data">
<INPUT TYPE="FILE" NAME="fields[filename]">
<INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="fields[extra]" VALUE="fred">
<INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT">
</FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>
to this:
<?php
var_dump($fields) ;
?>
you get this:
array(1) { ["extra"]=> string(4) "fred" }
If you use this HTML:
<HTML>
<BODY><H1>filename </H1>
<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="test.php" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data">
<INPUT TYPE="FILE" NAME="fields[filename]">
<INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT">
</FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>
you get this:
array(1) { ["filename"]=> string(14) "/tmp/phpSsMqed" }
If you use the first file on PHP 4.2.3 you get the response which we
believe is correct which is:
array(2) { ["filename"]=> string(18) "/var/tmp/php7xaWYL" ["extra"]=>
string(4) "fred" }
The bug occurs on both our Linux RH 8.0 and Solaris 7/8 systems. We
have not tried 4.3.2 pre-releases -- it has taken us long enough to find
the problem!
There are similar bug reports on old versions but we think that the
transition from 4.2.3 to 4.3.1 has changed something.
Regards,
Simon.
