Re: Way to ignore POST content

[Scott Klement <web400@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Isn't that what CGIConvMode %%BINARY/BINARY%% does?  It eliminates any 
conversion?

Also, what content-type are they sending?  The only reason I could see 
Apache caring about the % character is if it thinks the POST data is url 
encoded for some reason.
