use CGI qw( escape );
#[...]
if (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS)) {
    while (list ($header, $value) = each ($HTTP_POST_VARS)) { 
        $QSTRING = $QSTRING.'&'.$header.'='.escape($value);
    }                       # I added this: ^^^^^^^      ^

You might also need to escape the $header.

Update: jryan points out that I've used a Perl module to update your PHP code. Perhaps someone can pipe up with the way to URL-encode values in PHP or you can just use the original, still-escaped query string instead of rebuilding it from the now-unescaped parameter values.

In case people wonder what the PHP equivalent of CGI's `escape` is, it's `urlencode`. So if we PHP-ify tye's code it might go a little something like this `$QSTRING = $QUERY_STRING; $hpv =& $HTTP_POST_VARS; if(is_array($hpv) && count($hpv) > 0) foreach($hpv as $key => $value) $QSTRING .= '&'.$key.'='.urlencode($value);` [download] HTH broquaint	[reply] [d/l]
