Bug description: header() works, but not with variables, after a POST request
Description:
------------
Hello there..
I've been fighting with this code for about a day or two, but it just
doesn't seem to work..
If I use output buffering, post a form and want to do a header(), it
works.... Only it doesn't when I want to use $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']..
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
ob_start(); // start the outputbuffer
if(!empty($_POST) && !isset($_SESSION['form'])) { // my POST is full, but
we can't find a session variable... Strange.. There's someone fucking with
my site
header('location: ' . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
}
if(empty($_POST)) { // POST is empty... Let's show a form here:
// do my form here + make a session for the form
}
else { // POST is NOT empty... Let's handle the data
// handle my data here
}
if(!empty($_POST) && isset($_SESSION['form'])) { // my POST is full, and
the session exists.. Fine, let's unset() it. :)
unset($_SESSION['form']); // unsetting the session..
}
ob_end_flush();
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Well, the first thing I wanted to see, is that the form shows up (yes, it
really does, so that's not wrong..)
After that, I'll fill it in and submit it..
I get my data and so.. But, if I refresh, the browser asks me if I want to
send the data again.... I click yes, and my code works, except for the
header().
If I put header('location: index.php'); in it, It works, but not with
$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'].
EVERYTHING works, except for REQUEST_URI, QUERY_STRING and any of the GET
variables..
Actual result:
--------------
A whole blank page..
With about:blank in the title bar..
Al that, nothing more, nothing less.
