Problem with form submission

[JonasE]

hello all,

 

I have run into a bit of an issue... On my three development boxes I run Gentoo, BSD and Windows with practically the same PHP config along with Apache 2. A project I recently completed was just uploaded to a client's server running Apache 2 and PHP (5.2.1). I can no longer submit any data from forms:

 

page.html

<form action="page2.php?action=insert" method="post">

 

Name<br />

 

<input size="40" name="name" type="text"><br />

<input type="submit" value="Submit">

 

</form>

 

page2.php

if(!isset($_REQUEST['action'])){

die("No function Value given");

}

$action = $_REQUEST['action'];

 

switch($action) {

case 'insert':

$name = $_REQUEST['name'];

// Create instance of database class and connect.

$mysql = new mysql();

$mysql->connect();

// Do insert.

$insert = $mysql->insert("database","name","$name");

// Redirect to main listing.

header('Location: index.php');

break;

}

 

Like I said, this has worked flawless up until now... Now when I submit I get a blank page with the URL showing as page2.php?action=insert

I thought this was due to register globals, but as far as I know, I am handling that correctly... And it is also "off" on my tests servers.

I am going crazy over this, does anyone have any idea what is going??

 

Thanks,

 

Jonas

Have you tried replacing REQUEST with _GET

?

[JonasE]

Yep, sure have. Same result...

[MadTechie]

what about the lines

      $mysql = new mysql();
      $mysql->connect();

 

they seams incompleate as i see no include

[JonasE]

Sorry, I left those include lines out for simplicity. They are properly included.

Thanks for looking at my issue... It's really bugging me...

try

 

if(!isset($_REQUEST['action']) && strlen($_REQUEST['action']) == 0){
die("No function Value given");
}

 

also try inserting some stuff in your  case 'insert'

 

like echo 'insert' or try to echo $_REQUEST['action']

 

cheers

I have tried changing the code in several different ways already... What bothers me the most though is that, like I said, this works on 4 other servers... What in the server configuration could cause something like this? No data is being passed through forms what so ever...
