Re: [Mod-security-developers] Question about ARGS Variable

Hey Jai,

I believe ARGS is only filled with the request body with the request is a
urlencoded. Because ARGS and friends are treated as tabular variables,
ModSecurity won't attempt to parse an XML body and at it into the ARGS or
ARGS_POST variables, because there's no sane way to interpolate the
document into key-value paired data.
