Getting the content length of posted values

[rajujrk]

hi,

i am currently creating one page processing the username and password , and prints the value given in that textboxes.

it is a single php script contains both the design and server script.

That is form action and actual page is same..

for example the below script is saved as login.php

 
 
<form method="post" action="login.php">
: :
: :
</form>
<?php
$s=$_POST['user'];
$p=$_POST['pass'];
 

in Asp i use to get the content length is request.TotalBytes
in JSP i use to get the content length is request.getContentLength
How do we get it in PHP?

Thanks in Advance..

do you mean strlen($_POST['user']);?

Heya, rajujrk.

If you want to see if the User submitted anything, do this:

if( ! empty($_POST) )
 

http://php.net/empty

If you need the actual length of the POST data, your best bet would be to do something like this:

strlen(http_build_query($_POST))
 

http://php.net/strlen
http://php.net/http_build_query
