[Bug 978107] Re: not parsing form data as multidimensional variables into $_POST

Sat Apr 21 00:07:11 UTC 2012

I could not reproduce this on the latest 12.04 with PHP 5.3.10-1ubuntu3
using a basic libapache2-mod-php5 setup.

_POST comes out as

Array
(
    [text1] => Array
        (
            [fname] => a
            [lname] => b
            [text3] => Array
                (
                    [text] => c
                )

            [text4] => Array
                (
                    [text] => d
                )

        )

    [submit1] => submit
)

Given this script (combines the HTML with the result so you can keep
trying values):

<html>
<body>
<?php

$inputdata = file_get_contents( 'php://input' );
print_r($inputdata);
echo '<pre>';
print_r($_POST);
echo '</pre>';

$test_array = array ( 'test1' => array( 'test11' => 'test','test12' => 'test','test13' => array( 'test131' => 'test') ) );
echo '<pre>';
var_export($test_array);
echo '</pre>';
?>
<form method="post">

First Name: <input type="text" id="fname" name="text1[fname]"></input>
<br/><br/>
Last name: <input type="text" id="lname" name="text1[lname]"></input>
<br/><br/>

text3: <input type="text" id="fname" name="text1[text3][text]"></input>
<br/><br/>
text4: <input type="text" id="lname" name="text1[text4][text]"></input>
<br/>

<br/>
<input name="submit1" type="submit" value="submit"></input>

</form>

</body>
</html>
