Post form with field containing "curl curl"

Recommended Posts

I have a form that posts and 1 field is for a suburb, 1 of the suburbs in our area is "curl curl".

 

When ever this is entered we get an error message "You don't have permission to access". Any ideas to fix this would be appreciated

Sorry, It is part of a large script with lots of includes so I have written a simple script that does ther same thing.

 

<?php

echo '

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">

<html lang="en">

<head>

<title>Test Curl</title>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-AU" />

<meta http-equiv="Country" name="Australia" />

<link rel=StyleSheet href="includes/style.css" type="text/css">

</head>

<body>';

if($_POST['action'] == "Save")

    {

    echo 'You entered a suburb of '.$_POST['suburb'];

    exit();

    }

else

    {

    echo '

    <form name="main_form" action="'.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

    <input type="hidden" name="action" value="">

Suburb:

<input class="text_entry" type="text" name="suburb" size="200" maxlength="200" style="width:250px;" id="suburb" value="">

<a href="#" onClick="document.main_form.action.value=\'Save\'; document.main_form.submit();">Save</a>

    </form>';

    }

echo '

</body>

</html>';

 

 

This can be tested at http://www.cybernamixqld.com.au/curl-test.php.

 

If you enter "chicago" as a suburb it is alright but if you enter "curl curl" it is not.

 

Thanks for your help.

I would try testing the data for an instance of "curl curl" and replaceing it with "curlcurl" or "curl_curl" or similar. If that's not an option, I'd suggest digging into the manuals at haxx.
