If it doesn't have a name attribute, or is disabled IE won't include it in the post.

Can you explain what exactly you are doing? print_r($_POST) should show the
all values of the form including a textarea.
What do you mean by "pasted in"?

I'm onto the bug.
If the text contains "…" char [hex 85]; IE6 doesn't send the POST data. There may be other bad characters; i haven't
tested yet.

Is the text area named?

Everyone keeps asking it. Of course it's named or Mozzilla wouldn't work.

You can insert a textarea into a page without a name and mozilla will work.
If the textarea is named have you tried this....
echo $_POST['textareaName'];

Are you sure? I just tried it using FF and textarea is not posted. Even
if I set id attribute.

Without a name the text area will not get posted, but it will display. I
asked the OP if the textarea was named.

For those interested, here is the answer...
Text pasted into a textarea [e.g., from Word] can have characters not defined in IE's textarea ISO-8859-1 charset.
Appearently, IE6 has a bug such that it does not send the POST value for the textarea name when some of these are
present. [e.g., "…" char [hex 85]] I don't know how many.
You can get it to work by right-mouse selecting Encoding UTF-8 on the client browser or use in the html header:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" >

Sometimes I use BBEDIT and turn-on "Show Invisibles"... that usually
catches any odd character. Then I save the file with unix line
endings... Seems to work really well.
I am glad you got it figured out.

Micky

Cool, I learn something new all the time :) I think I first used the XML
functions back in PHP3 before they had this particular option.

You can detect file size on the client side with JavaScript, this may help;

attached mail follows:
The php script starts to execute AFTER the file has already been
uploaded so the quick answer is no you can't get the file size prior to
the upload finishing (in PHP). I fought with a similar problem and
ended up implementing the uploading portion of a script using perl
which has access to the file as it is uploading.

I'm trying to do what should be a very simple regex, but can't seem to get
PHP to work, yet regex-coach and even an XML .XSD work fine:
Valid forms of a windows logon are:
"foo\bar"
"\\foo\bar"
function isValidWinLogon($logon)
{
//$logon = '\\\\foo\\bar';
$logon = '\\foo\bar';
print "<P><PRE>logon = '$logon'<BR></PRE>\n";
preg_match('/(\\\\)?.+\\.+/', $logon, $matches);
//preg_match('/(\\\\)?.+(\\).+/', $logon, $matches);
print_r($matches);
return (count($matches) > 0);
}
I'm obviously passing in the strings, but for testing, I tried to hard-code
it.
First, when I use single ticks, I thought that meant to be taken literally.
Seems I still have to escape (\) the backslashes.
In either case, the $matches array is EMPTY.
Further more, WTF do I get this error:
"Compilation failed: missing ) at offset 12" (pointing to the commented out
preg_match.
WTF should adding a set of parenthesis cause a compilation error?!

WTF do you need so many WTFs?
Adding a set of parenthesis isn't causing the error. Adding an
open-bracket and then an escaped close-bracket is causing your error.
The "missing ) at offset 12" is a bit of a clue there.
Backslashes are special characters to both single-quoted strings AND
regular expressions so if you use them, you're normally going to have
to escape them twice.
So if you want optional double backslashes, followed by any characters
followed by a backslash followed by any characters - which is what I'm
guessing you were aiming at, you'd start off with this:
/^(\\)?.+\.+$/
you need to escape the backslashes for the regular expression engine
so you get this:
/^(\\\\)?.+\\.+$/
and you're supplying it in a single-quoted string, which also needs
the backslashes escaped, so you get this:
'/^(\\\\\\\\)?.+\\\\.+$/'
by which point you should be swearing at Microsoft for choosing such a
stupid character for a login string delimiter.
Clear?

Could not you also do:
<?php
if (count($_REQUEST) > 0) {
while(list ($key, $val) = each ($_REQUEST)) {
$$key = $val;
}
}
?>

The only problem I see with this is now you are asking php to issue a
count on the $_REQUEST array, this could take some time depending on your
form size.

That shouldn't be an issue. I'm quite sure PHP doesn't traverse the
array to count the elements, but rather already knows the size by virtue
of housekeeping when elements are added or removed. Either way it would
be the copy process that would be heaviest but since PHP uses a
copy-on-write system of variable copying, the expense is mitigated until
such time as the value copied changes in one of the lightweight copies
at which time a real copy occurs.
Cheers,
Rob.

HI all,
I am working on a project where it would be nice to be able to create
a load plan for a semi trailer or ocean container. There are some
commercially available programs to do this in windows but nothing in
PHP.
Does anyone know of a PHP script that will do this?
Basically it needs to know the size of the trailer and the size of the
items being loaded and then it will go through and create a load based
upon the density of each piece and distribute the weight evenly across
the trailer and fill the trailer up.
Thanks,

Hi all
I'm writing a function which will redirect the user to the last page
they were at when a session timeout occurred. The function will save all
variables and set them through POST or whatever was used on that page.
I.e: $_POST[$variableName] = $variableContent;
This works fine with regular php/html pages which uses either POST, GET
or SESSION for sending variable from one page to another.
But I have some pages which uses AJAX and it communicates internally
through GET, I'm able to save the variables which are send through GET
in AJAX, in debug mode AJAX refers to it by:
(RSD: destinationUpdate uri) which basically seems to be a normal link
without the pagename and only variables which are sent.
But when I try to set the variables again for AJAX to use after a
timeout, nothing happens and it only displays what is called (RSD:
received) AJAX debug mode. Which seems to be the answer to AJAX "question".
It seems that it all works good when I set the correct GET variables
until it sends back its answer, then it gets stuck. And this is my
problem, I would like to send variables through GET to AJAX and make it
work as it has send the variables it self.
Is there any experience AJAX users/developers which could help me with
me problem?
Thx in advance.
