#2306 — IP address and empty $_FILES

Hello

My PHP script for uploading doesn't work any more with Firefox 4
clients under Windows (XP or Vista) as it ran with older Firefox
releases: when these clients use the IP number of the server, instate
of its address name, the
PHP $_FILES variable is empty.

No difficulty neither with IE nor under Linux.

The HTTP server is Apache/2.2.17 (Unix) DAV/2 PHP/5.3.5

Can anybody tell me where is the problem coming from ?

Thanks in advance.

J-P.G

It wouldn't be PHP.  PHP doesn't care whether the server name or ip 
address is used or which browser the user is running.

Actually, it could be the browser.  The OP is looking for information 
coming from the client, so the client could be obscuring/mangling the 
information going to the server.

I didn't say it isn't the browser. I said it's not a PHP problem.

There is an interesting thread here: 
<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2347868/firefox-upload-form-issue>

Is this happening only on your browser, and if so, have you checked your 
antivirus and/or firewall?
