GET parameters not parsed when = is at the end

LonelyPixel

Hi,
I found a problem with my PHP installation on my webserver yesterday: When I request a page with some GET parameters with the last of them being empty, the whole GET array will be empty. When I add another unused parameter with a nonempty value or just a simple & to the URL, it works again.
I filed a bug to PHP, http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=27861, I'll see when they get to read it. But maybe someone of you had this problem, too, and can tell me how it can be solved.

Before reporting bugs you have to be sure that it is a bug.

I have a lot of scripts where sometimes a part a of a QS is empty. And the rest of the QS is still OK...

I've done some testing on this but I can't find a reason why PHP behaves like that. It has never done, and it doesn't on Windows nor on other PHP versions on Linux/Windows. The only thing I could have missed (I can imagine) would be a limitation to the HTTP protocol, but what would be a solution/workaround for it then?
I'll have to install PHP 4.3.4 or even 4.3.3 today and see if that works.

hmm... never had this problem before too.

Cant seem to find a server offhand that uses PHP 4.3.5 and Apache 2.0.49

The closest I came to was running Apache 2.0.48, and it didnt have that problem.

I'll have to go out and buy something, maybe I'll try and test when I come back.

P.S.: you arent online in Jabber, LonelyPixel?

I am at work, going home now...
Well, I'll continue testing today, with php.ini and older versions.

OK, shame on me, it was suPHP's fault. Applied a patch and it works again! :o
