note 88736 added to function.array-count-values

psbauman, The reason your zeros are stripped is because you are storing that initial leading-zero value as an integer. For example: $id_numbers[0] = 0056789; rathern than: $id_numbers[0] = "0056789"; If you store it as a string, the leading zeros will be kept. Try printing out the value of $id_numbers[0] right after you set it, and you will see what I mean.
