Codeigniter $ this-> input-> post总是FALSE

Question

I am trying to send an httpRequest to a codeigniter controller function. I am using the REST console to test the function . I am trying to send 3 POST variables .

• UserName
• Email
• UserID

Here's the code to handle the request

public function NewUser()
{
    if($this->input->post())
    {
        $FID        = $this->input->post('UserID');
        $UserName   = $this->input->post('UserName');
        $Email      = $this->input->post('Email');
        echo "working";
        echo $FID;
        echo $UserName;
    }
    else
    {
        echo "not working";
    }
}

But this doesn't work. It always output's not working. When I change everything to geteverything starts working fine.

What could be the issue ? Post Request is not working anywhere throughout this codeigniter project.

EDIT

I created a new script, with the following code.

<?php

  var_dump($_POST);
  echo $_POST['UserName'];
  echo $_POST['FacebookID'];
  echo $_POST['Email'];
  echo "********************************";
?>

It is saying undefined index . What could be the issue ? Please help. It works fine for $_GET

Answer 1

you should try

isset($_REQUEST) or !empty($_REQUEST)

to check data is coming or not
