Languages :: PHP :: Recreate raw POST data.?
By: norbs101	Date: 12/06/2003 00:00:00	Points: 405	Status: Answered Quality : Excellent
I have a php script that runs another scirpt written in K. The k scirpt needs to get the raw_post_data that php gets. But php always parses the raw post data when the content type is multipart/...., I need a function that can recreate the original data into say a variable using the $_POST. Also the php script must be dynamic enough to obtain the variable names inside the $_POST iteself. Since they will change and the amount of them changes. Any help is greatly appreciated.

K? It's new to me ! What is K ? Anywa, I think I understood your probem but don't have a slution. My workaround solution will be to make the PHP script build an auto-submitted POST FORM with the data from $_POST[] put into type=hidden fields that's easy.

something like : <?php echo "<form name=myform action=\"your_k_script_URI\" method=POST>"; foreach ($_POST as $var=>$value) echo "<input type=hidden name=$var value=\"$value\">"; echo "</form>"; echo "<script>document.myform.submit();</script>"; ?>

This is someone's quick descirption and critique of K. Just to give an insight. <A HREF="http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2002/11/14/22741/791">http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2002/11/14/22741/791</a>

The problem with that solution is that php does the processing of the form. All I need is the Original POST data submitted by the browser before it was parsed to pass into the stdin of the K program. The K program does all the form processing afterwards. N.

well, then don't pass anything to PHP but pass it to K ;-)

I wish it was that simple... K when compiled and run as a scirpt doesn't like environment variables from the server. Which is a big isssue. And a code redesign is not in my hands.

and why do you use K then? //bljak da unKnown

what do you reproach to my solution ? It should work. It'll build a brand new RAW POST DATA packet for your K script. I don't understand what could be better.

Not my choice... I'm just here to write the mother script for it... And all works great as long as I have access to $http_raw_post_data or php://input... but they both get parsed is variables_order in php.ini contain "p" or contenttype is multipart/form..
