$params[\'channels\'] don\'t accept $_POST[\'value\']

[F4314N0]

the $params['channels'] don't accept values from forms by POST method. example:

//input from form
$txtChannel = $_POST["txt_channel"];

$params["channels"] = array("".$txtChannel."");

when i enter in chat, show me the message: "missing parameter (/join {channelname})".
but in debug, we can see the values printed properly:
[channels] => Array
(
[0] => roomName
)

[frozen_channels] => Array
(
[0] => roomName
)

i'm using version 1.0-final.
thanks.

You could not proceed like this since the "channels" param is cached; that means that you should have to rehash the configuration each time you want to refresh this parameter. You could try to set the 'channels' param to a dyn_param, but I'm not sure it's working...

Actually, what you need to do is save the channel as a session value on the previous page, then load the chat. What your not seeing is the chat is effectively being refreshed oodles of times, so after the first load it looses the POST you sent it and tries to join a channel based on an empty variable. Make sure you don't set the session on the chat page or you'll have a similar problem.
