[mapguide-users] problem with setresource

Are you sure it isn't the magic_quotes_gpc setting in PHP?  I think you
can turn this off in your script with ini_set?

Subject: [mapguide-users] problem with setresource

I'm not sure what to do with this.  I am calling the MapAgent
SETRESOURCE operation through a proxy script (PHP).  The content of the
resource is passed as a string to the proxy script which then adds the
appropriate multipart form information to get MapGuide to accept the
resource content.  This works (once I figured out that it requires a
file name).  However, if the proxy script is on a machine with Apache
1.3, the XML content gets quotes in the xml escaped so you end up with
tags like

<tag attr=\"test\"/>

which causes MapGuide server to fail to load the content.

The same proxy running on Apache 2.0 works without problem (because it
doesn't escape the quotes).

Is this a problem with MapGuide server (i.e. should it be unescaping
quotes)?  Is this a bug in some Apache versions?  Should I not worry
about it and make it a requirement for my app to run under Apache 2.x?

Cheers

Paul
