To add to puovils at gmail dot com's comments, you get the expected results if the form is submitted via GET.

I really don't mean to be "chicken little", but isn't this serious enough that it warrants 5.1.3.1 and/or a recall of 5.1.3?

Its happening on all the linux boxes I've tried.

I also have the same problem on a LFS Linux with PHP 5.1.3 and Apache 2.2.2, all forms of my sites are not working anymore due to this critical bug...

My HTML code :
------------------
<input class="forminputtext" type="text" name="tab[38][partenaire_responsable]" id="tab[38][partenaire_responsable]" value="Correct Name" maxlength="100" size="69" />
------------------

$_POST data returned by this form :
-------------------
[partenaire_responsable] => Array
(
   [tion] => Correct Name
)
-------------------

instead of :
------------------
[partenaire_responsable] => Correct Name
------------------

I think the "tion" index comes from a previous field named "partenaire_description" so it could be possible that previous field name was incorrectly deleted from memory.

I forgot to add that phpMyAdmin isn't working anymore and put "Array" strings almost everywhere instead of correct datas...

Yes, there is something very wrong, I have experienced this problem with phpmyadmin but neglected to report here :-(

Concerning phpMyAdmin : http://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=3711167

The same problem exists on win32 too.

I just looked in PHP code and I think problem is in "php_register_variable_ex" function in "main/php_variables.c" file.

Fixed in CVS HEAD and PHP_5_1.
