Hi all!
I'm using the following code to extract form values:
sub Get_formvalues()
{
my (%ReturnVariable);
if (($ENV{'REQUEST_METHOD'} eq "GET") || ($ENV{'REQUEST_METHOD'} e
+q "POST"))
{
my @keywords = $query->param;
foreach my $name (@keywords)
{
my @values = $query->param($name);
foreach my $value (@values)
{
if ($ReturnVariable{$name})
{
$ReturnVariable{$name} .= "\n$value";
}
else
{
$ReturnVariable{$name} = $value;
}
}
}
}
return (%ReturnVariable);
}
This makes it possible for me to get the formvalues via
local %formvariables = Get_formvalues();
and to access them via
$formvariabel{'name'}
This works perfectly and has done that for several years.
A while ago however, we've ran into problems where these values has been empty, and we have narrowed it down to that only some users using "AppleWebKit"-based browsers generates the problem (for example
HTTP_USER_AGENT = Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_5_6; sv-se) AppleWebKit/525.27.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.2.1 Safari/525.27.1).
My questions:
1. Is this "manageable"?
2. Is this possible to trace a broken form if that is the problem?
3. Is this a known problem?
