X-Git-Tag: php-5.3.0alpha1~69
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0f9026daf9542b0735811381bcd677e1ad26364a;p=php

MFH: When automatically redirecting an HTTP request, use the GET method when the
original method was not HEAD or GET (fixes #45540)
#
# The RFC says that in case of 3xx code, "The action required MAY be
# carried out [...] *only if the method used in the second request is GET or
# HEAD*".
#
# This may not break anything as actually POST requests replying
# with a Location header never worked as the redirecting request was sent using
# the POST method, but without Entity-Body (and without Content-Length header,
# which caused the server to reply with a "411 Length Required" or to treat
# the request as GET).
