Hey LQ
I know this isn't the best place to post this kind of thing but I can't seem to login to sitepoint at the moment.
Anyhow, this is my issue.
I have a script with a form.
Code:
<form action="submit.php" method="POST">
<input name="title.title" value="a title" />
<input type="submit" value="Test" />
</form>
You can see quite clearly, the name of the input field is "title.title".
On the receiving (submit.php) side we have
Code:
<? print_r($_POST); exit(); ?>
And output for that is
Code:
Array
(
[title_title] => a title
)
Can anyone explain to me why it's converting the period to an underscore, is this a PHP thing? Is it related to my browser? (latest Firefox)
I've never come across this issue in 10+ years of writing PHP.
[PHP] Input name containing a period is converted to an underscore?
