That's intended behaviour. You can't have dots in variable names, the dot is already 
used for string concatenation.

Bogus.

When i submit a form where is a dot in the name it's changes to "_".
for example:
<form action="<?=$PHP_SELF;?>" method="post" name="aaa">
        <input type="text" size="12" name="12.13.14" value="66.66">
        <input type="submit" value="send me">
</form>

when runing in PHP:
foreach ($HTTP_POST_VARS as $key=>$val){
        echo "$key = $val<BR>";
}

the output will be : 127_0_0_1 = 66.55
