#17739 [Com]: form select multiple returns double values
ID: 17739 Comment by: srinivasan at rage-india dot com Reported By: php at remove dot gustl dot net Status: No Feedback Bug Type: Apache2 related Operating System: all PHP Version: 4.2.1 New Comment: I also face the same issue. check the below code. Name Name 1 Name 2 Name 3 Go my print_r($_POST) returns as Array ( [a] => Array ( [0] => a [1] => b [2] => c [3] => da[]=a [4] => b [5] => c [6] => d ) ) I get this issue on IE and Firefox. Any Help Previous Comments: [2008-02-19 19:58:33] bob at bob-russell dot net I see this is an old discussion but I hope someone will discover my call for help. There are lots of 'complains' on different web blogs concerning IE 6 or 7 sending form data twice. Most replies suggest that the user is hitting the submit button twice. I don't think this always the case. I am getting the problem almost permanently with both IE 6 and IE 7. but no problem with Firefox or Opera! For info my form data is handled by php. Only login name, password and submit are being sent. I have made the receiving page record a log of it's activities and (only with IE) the page runs twice! The first time with all the $_POST variables empty. The second time they are populated with correct values. These tests are made on a local Apache test setup. The same thing happens on the live web site but the first time sometimes has corrupt data. The second time seems to be ok as on local test. I am at a loss and can't find anything on the web which gets down to this problem. Bob R. Any ideas for a fix (apart of telling all users to go over to Firefox!). [2006-05-15 09:26:02] stevenbg at gmail dot com i have the same problem with ie6 and a big form (multipart/form-data, select, BIG textarea with FCKEditor). i used WPE (winsock packet editor) to capture the packets that IE generated and, yes, the problem is in IE. sadly, this bug is very poorly documentated [2003-09-01 03:51:35] itaka--nothis-- at hotmail dot com I believe it is Internet Explorer 5 and 6. I have seen this happen on Win2k, IIS and ASP. What it looks like is that IE restarts building the formdata after a certain point, sometimes using the same boundary, sometimes using a different boundary. When it uses the same boundary, the formfields that have been already processed, will be repeated. When it uses another boundary, it depends on how the formdata are being parsed: if only the last boundary is being used (the one that is send along as a header), usually there are no problems, although sometimes the first formfield is send corrupted (and missing after parsing). I have seen the behaviour both in IE 5 and 6, although IE 6 seems not so easy to trigger into it. Also there are quite a number of references to this problem in various discussion groups. But no one really knows what is going on and what triggers the bug. I found that it is needed to use multipart/form-data, have an and have a long text in a textarea, which contains non-standard characters. Also having a javascript-submit helps it trigger. other posts refering to this are for example: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/cache/4/23/23107.htm http://mathforum.org/epigone/modperl/sweuphendbrong/[EMAIL PROTECTED] [2003-06-26 18:19:37] [EMAIL PROTECTED] No feedback was provided.

multipart/formdata and a special char copied from a Winword document.
Indeed, I wonder, if it is IE5.0 that is doubling the array, or there
is any strange thing (in IE5.0) that causes php to double the array
when receiving it. The first is of course a bug in IE5.0. The latter
would be one in php.
Maybe a developer can sniff the transmitted code and trace if IE5.0 is
already doubling the value(s) or if this happens in php's
value-handling.

It happens because some guy at Microsoft was drunken.
Infact you are triggering a situation where the IE 5.0
simply sends every form field 2 times.
[2002-06-13 12:05:00] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
this may be true, but do you know how this happens or how I can analyze
the problem, because I don't get $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA when enctype is
set to "multipart/form-data", even when I set
always_populate_raw_post_data = On.
My workarround for now is to put the select post results through
array_unique (),

in PHP but yet another bug in IE.

A very special (maybe browser only) problem, when I post a form under
following conditions:
1. form enctype="multipart/form-data"
2. or with unicode-values
3. and a file upload
4. only from IE 5.0 (30% of my visitors), other browsers ok
5. and you select a value with unicodes
the returned array contains the selected values twice, like:
["currency"]=>
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(12) " Euro"
[1]=>
string(12) " Euro"
}
the script (www.gustl.at/testmultisel.php):
select multiple
which are your favorite currencies
€ Euro
$ Dollar
and send a file
post: ";
var_dump ($_POST);
echo "";
?>
