I have this really wierd question.
When I submit my form, if one of the variables is, say http://www.youtube.com, the page gives a NO DATA RECEIVED error and fails.
Not sure if it is a server setting, or something I can fix in the PHP script.
The post processing script is very simple for testing:
<?php
foreach($_POST as $a=>$b) echo "{$a}={$b}<br />";
?>
This is fine on some servers, not on others, which makes me think it's a server setting.
Any insight will be gratefully received
Things to check for in php.ini:
post_max_size # should be different from 0variables_order # should be = "EGPCS"max_input_vars # should be higher than the number of variables you passThings to check for in the HTML form:
method="POST"multipart/form-data, if not it should be application/x-www-form-urlencoded<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="..." /> - is it big enough ? If all are fine, check if mod_security is enabled, and also check .htaccess for things like RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} POST, and the rule after it.
Check if your browser sends the data. In Chrome network tab I see something like this:
You can also try the following:
var_dump(get_defined_vars());
or
$vars = get_defined_vars();
foreach ($vars as $var) {
echo "<br><b>{$var}</b>";
var_dump($$var);
}
and check the list of declared variables.
PS:
I presumed that you use Apache, since you didn't include this info. Also, try a different browser, and see if it changes anything.
PS2: I like to check config settings in the command line with:
~$ php -i | grep -i variables_order
variables_order => GPCS => GPCS
