Posting to an array variable LOOSES the first 4 charcters of data every time.

The best way to see this is by example:

<!-- INPUT -->
<form action="<?=$_SELF?>" method="POST">
<input name="variable[]" value="123456789">
<input name="variable[]" value="abcdefghi">
<input type=submit value=submit name=submit>
</form>
<pre>
<?=print_r($_POST);?>
</pre>

<!-- OUTPUT -->
Array
(
    [variable] => Array
        (
            [0] => 56789
            [1] => efghi
        )

    [submit] => submit
)

I noticed this bug after a few clients upgraded to PHP 4.2.3 from 4.2.2. Nothing else changed on the server.

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

In case this was a PHP problem, snapshots of the sources are packaged
every three hours; this change will be in the next snapshot. You can
grab the snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/.
 
In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up soon at
http://www.php.net/manual/.

In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show
up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites in short time.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

Also try --disable-mbstr-enc-trans if you still want to use 4.2.3.

I upgraded to the lastest snapshot and it works great. I think this is also a problem in 4.3.0pre1 because I tried to upgrade to that and it still didn't work.

Thank you for the report.
There is no difference between 4.3.0-pre1 and CVS HEAD version in the part of code blamed in 4.2.3, so I don't see the problem there.
Did you get the same result with pre1 version?

I have also the same problem. OS is SuSE 8.0, 4.2.3 
version of php compiled by myself.

Did you try the latest snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/ ?
