PHP Bug Type: Session related
Bug description: Mixing page encodings (UTF8/ASCII) makes unrecognized session
variables
Description:
------------
- Having an auto_prepend script encoded in UTF8
- One regular page encoded in ASCII
- A second page encoded in UTF8
(or the other way around)
Makes all the associative session variables unrecognized.
print_r($_SESSION) does out put the correct session variables. (the key is
probably encoded differently which makes it not recognize it)
Reproduce code:
---------------
PREPEND FILE ENCODED IN UTF8 (no BOM) :
<?php
$dummy = true;
?>
REGULAR FILE ENCODED IN ASCII :
<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION['foo'] = 42;
include( <second page> );
?>
REGULAR FILE ENCODED IN UTF8 :
<?php
echo $_SESSION['foo'];
print_r($_SESSION);
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Display :
-----------------
42Array( [foo] => 42 )
-----------------
Actual result:
--------------
Display :
-----------------
Array( [foo] => 42 )
-----------------
