If you use the following code <?php echo '<pre>'; print_r($_POST); echo '</pre>'; ?> <form method="post"> <input type="text" name="array[]" size="8" /> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="test" /> </form> It shows the example best, if the mbstring extension is enabled when you type any text into the text field it will remove the first four characters. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19347&edit=1
