Just ditch Apache and start using something much better: Lighttpd + PHP
as FastCGI. That's propably the difference here.

Thank you for the input. This complicates the problem. Let�s do some
differential diagnosis.

The problem is caused by: PHP configuration and/or Apache configuration
and/or the code.

As expert you don�t see any problem with PHP configuration.
The code works in 2 other servers (with minor versions of PHP I should
remark)
Apache is compiled (because of this very problem) without any tweaking
because in my experience 99,99% of the problems occur because of a
user�s error.
So IMHO it�s either Apache (but what in Apache?) or the code in this
version of PHP. To exclude the second part, would you be so kind to
provide me some code to type in the test page to see if it works in this
particular version of PHP? Then if it won�t work it should be either
Apache or a PHP bug.

Thank you.

P.S. I�ll be abroad (in Deutschland) for the next 8 days so please
don�t expect my response soon.)

FYI: I myself run a Centos server with PHP 5.2.6 without any problems.
There's something wrong with your setup or something similar.

Aw it concerns HTML quotes: 
a) It doesn't work either way
b) I remind you that this is a bug report and not a "I can't program"
report.

The very same code works in other servers. e.g.:
http://www.xpert.gr/errata.php
Please note that this server runs on PHP 4.3.9 which is no longer
supported. Please read http://www.xpert.gr/myphp.php in order to compare
php infos

I've added the variable dumbing to target.php as you've said but it's
still null on PHP 5.2.5 Apache/centos server and works fine on PHP 4.3.9
server

Netcraft's report :
Problematic server: Apache/2.2.8 Unix mod_ssl/2.2.8 OpenSSL/0.9.8b
mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635
mod_jk/1.2.25 PHP/5.2.5

Is it possible that the problem maybe caused by CENTOS since the
working server runs REDHAT? Can you crossreference or even prove such an
assumption?

(be careful: I'm just guessing)

I assume that something conflicts with something but with what remains
a mystery.

And usually using proper HTML (With quotes around parameter values)
helps too.

What if you try this script as target.php:

<?php var_dump($_REQUEST); ?>
