Details

The title says it all, the header.php is not included, and you end up with a page without style.
I looked at the code, and I think the problem is related to the chdir($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']) call that makes the header.php inclusion fail (wrong directory?)

easy fix : store the previous path with getcwd() instead of using $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']
This task depends upon

It's not a bug, it's a feature : http://projects.archlinux.org/aur.git/commit/?id=de7c9ab787baf7c12e44c17d75b3b6cfe1c2bd97

I can't see a commit that fixes this issue, are you sure it's commited?
Can you give me a link to the commit?

I guess I was a bit hasty in that assumption. It seems it's a web server configuration issue.
My local installation works fine, but aur.archlinux.org is configured differently.
It may be possible to fix this in code. I'll have to investigate.

The problem has to do with document-root changing:

Because of that header.php and footer.php aren't found.

What about the fix I mentioned ? Saving the current directory with getcwd() before calling chdir() then restoring it with chdir($saved_path);
I don't think relying on DOCUMENT_ROOT is a good idea, for example, one could install the AUR in a subdirectory.
Is it even necessary to chdir at all ?

No news on this ?
The bug is triggered by going to pkgsubmit.php and pressing Upload without filling any field.
I'm attaching a patch.
