[New-bugs-announce] [issue18013] cgi.FieldStorage does not parse W3C sample

[Florent Xicluna]

New submission from Florent Xicluna:

Trying to parse the W3C sample, it fails in 3.3 (while it passes on 2.7).
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#h-17.13.4 (last example)

   Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=AaB03x

   --AaB03x
   Content-Disposition: form-data; name="submit-name"

   --AaB03x
   Content-Disposition: form-data; name="files"
   Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=BbC04y

   --BbC04y
   Content-Disposition: file; filename="file1.txt"
   Content-Type: text/plain

   ... contents of file1.txt ...
   --BbC04y
   Content-Disposition: file; filename="file2.gif"
   Content-Type: image/gif
   Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary

   ...contents of file2.gif...
   --BbC04y--
   --AaB03x--

(broken) test attached.
