Recently we migrated an online learning tool from Crazyhosting.net (PHP 4.04 W/ Zend Optimizer) to Powersurge.net (PHP 4.2.3) and the arrays returned by multi-selects in the forms appear to not be returning full values.

[html page]
<select name="skill_sets[]" multiple size=8>
<option>Academics
<option>Math
<option>Problem Solving
<option>Project Management
<option>Public Speaking
<option>Reading for Comprehension
<option>Technology
<option>Writing
</select>
[end of html page]

[php page to check values]

//get the values for skill sets from the form
$test = $_POST['skill_sets'];

//This should say 'Array'
echo "Skill sets posted as: ".$test;

//step through the skill sets, echoing each one.
for ($a = 0; $a < count($test); $a++ ) {

	echo "<li>".$test[$a];


}
[end of php page]

[output with all selected]
Skill sets posted as: Array
* emics
*
* lem Solving
* ect Management
* ic Speaking
* ing for Comprehension
* nology
* ing
[end of output]

Everything was working fine on 4.04...
