Hi,
I think it's not problem related to registering as globals data from
POST/GET. Problem is that what I expected (and seen on every other
configurations) was POST data being lost after
header("Location: $url);
And here, on IIS+PHP, I get POST data being "forwarded" to script
called with
header("Location: $url);
And I don't want that. That causes problems, cause it's not expected
behavior.
To be sure I just checked - on my other config. Apache+PHP POST data
don't propagate when redirecting, no matter what. No matter
register_globals is set off or on.
I suppose that to be some bug in IIS or PHP module working with IIS.
