The code did not change since 4.2.1. Nothing else changed between 4.2.1 and upgrade to 4.2.3. The values in $arr[$iCnt] and $_POST['txtPassword'] were as expected. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19447&edit=1
