All,
When I submit a form from MSIE, under certain circumstances some of the fields don't make it into the $_POST array. I am building a CMS that accepts images and text entered into an HTML form. If I submit a form from MSIE, and if the text contains special characters (like T [TM] for example), some of the $_POST fields are not populated in PHP. This problem does not occur on Mozilla or Safari.
The php version is 4.3.4, and is running on Linux. The MSIE version is 6.0.2800.1106.xpsp2.030422-1633. Here's a demonstration of the problem:

Can anyone tell me if this is a common problem? Is this a purely MSIE bug, or could PHP be a factor?
It seems to be a real problem, as we've seen quite a few emails such as this one over the past week or so. I'm running the same version of IE as you (6.0.2800.1106) (different product ID though), and can't reproduce the problem on any of my Linux webservers, or the one Win2k machine I have running PHP/Apache. I also hit your URL with IE, and info posted fine for me. It seems to just affect a small group of IE browsers (maybe they're not sending the request properly).
