I have a simple method of creating easy form processing.... I thought....

I came up with the idea (I am not claiming to be the first) to have form
elements I want to update via MySQL starting with either "-" or "+".

Example:

+name=DAN
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
-notes=
id=1

The first 2 are required and will be updated, the 3rd is optional and will
be updated and the 4th (id) is simply passed as form data.

The idea here is that I parse the $_POST variable to auto create a "UPDATE
table SET name = 'Dan', email = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' WHERE = 1" string for
MySQL.

The issue is that if I use the "+" to indicate a required field for error
trapping my $_POST array ends up like this:

+namD=AN
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
-notes=
id=1

Either this is a PHP / HTTP bug or I am up against some strange post naming
restriction.  I searched the web, the PHP site (includeing the bugs) and
could not spot an obvious reference.

Any ideas out there?

Dan
