Bug description: Problem with POSTed variables to PDFLIB
I am running Apache 2.0.44 with PHP 4.3 on a WIN32 Windows XP machine. The
problem only occurs when POSTed variables are used within a PDFLIB
function. The problem does not exist when I switch to Apache 1.3.27. I
have also tried with and without the Zend Optimizer.
When I get input on script #1 and pass that information to script #2 via
POST I can access the variable in everything but PDFLIB functions. If I
add die("$variable") at any point prior to starting the PDFLIB PDF page,
the variable is displayed fine. Also, all IF loops work fine based on the
POSTed variables. However, the variable itself and anything that was
assigned a value based on the POSTed variable are not recognized within
the newly created PDFLIB page.
For instance, $variable is posted from script #1. If $variable =
condition then $newvar = x. The PDFLIB function not only doesn't
recognize $variable but it also doesn't recognize $newvar. However, if I
simply put $newvar = 12 then it works fine. Using the super globals also
has no effect. Reassigning the POSTed variable to a local variable also
has no effect. Reassigning the super global to a local variable also has
no effect.
When I switch the method to GET, everything works fine.
I am not sure where the problem lies. . .Apache? PHP? PDFLIB?
