sorry, my english.

When I send array with http form, the count of array is duplicate at server page.

//My source at http form.....
<select name='my_val[]' size='3' onfocus='set_check()' multiple>
										<option value=' 1'>val1</option>
										<option value=' 2'>val2</option>
										<option value=' 3'>val3</option>
										</select>
//My source at server page...
count(my_val);
//

the count value is different from I selected.

So I have tested on PHP4.1.2 then no troubles.

What is the problem ?

In PHP 4.2.0, the 'register_globals' setting default changed to
be off. See http://www.php.net/release_4_2_0.php for more info.
We are sorry about the inconvenience, but this change was a necessary
part of our efforts to make PHP scripting more secure and portable.

I changed aparch version from 2.0.39 to 1.3.26 and the problem was disappeared.
But I doubt PHP is well operating.
Above test url is not avaible from now.
