Bug description: Javascript line interfering with setcookie()
Description:
------------
I'm sorry, I could not check the bug with the latest version of php (only
with 4.3.11), BUT before closing this topic, please try the code I posted
because the bug is so peculiar, I would be surprised if it had been
reported !
One line of javascript (displaying an html image tag with document.write),
prevents the setcookie function to work correctly when the value is given
with some conditional statements (using isset, or hiding an error with
@).
Simply enter a word in the input field.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
if (!isset($_POST['aa'])) {$ax='00';} else {$ax=$_POST['aa'];}
setcookie('test',$ax);
var_dump($ax);
?>
<script type="text/javascript"> document.write('<img src>') </script>
<form method="post" action="" name="test">
<input type="text" name="aa"><br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Ok">
</form>
Expected result:
----------------
It should set a cookie named 'test' with the value you have entered in the
input field.
Actual result:
--------------
Instead it will set the '00' value to the cookie, even though dumping the
variable produces the expected result, that is the content of the input
field !
However, if you remove the javascript line, it will set the cookie with
the correct value !
