Maybe you should use the old, deprecated ways of getting the data?

 

I'm not too familiar with them myself, as I've only recently started PHP programming, however maybe searching Google for the 'old ways' of getting posted variables would do the trick...

this is form

<form action="foo.php" method="POST">

    Name:  <input type="text" name="username" /><br />

    Email: <input type="text" name="email" /><br />

    <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit me!" />

</form>

 

in foo.php i am getting values of username and email in firefox

but in ie6 i am not getting using $_POST['username'] or using $_REQUEST['username'];

this is form

<form action="foo.php" method="POST">

    Name:  <input type="text" name="username" /><br />

    Email: <input type="text" name="email" /><br />

    <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit me!" />

</form>

 

in foo.php i am getting values of username and email in firefox

but in ie6 i am not getting using $_POST['username'] or using $_REQUEST['username'];

 

You would get these values by $_POST['email']. The 'name' of your input form will corrospond to a key in the $_POST array.

If you're using if(isset($_POST['submit'])) to check for form submission, there's a high likelihood that's the problem. Some browsers don't handle the submit button's values properly, especially if the enter key is used rather than clicking the button. Add a hidden field to the form, along the lines of <input type="hidden" name="submitted" value="yes">, then check for it, rather than the submit button, to determine whether the form has been submitted. I do all of my forms this way, and have no problems with it.

if( isset($_POST['submitted']) && $_POST['submitted'] == 'yes') ) {
