We will not issue any patch for this, just tell your ISP to recompile and add the --disable-mbstring switch to configure, the bug wont be visible then.

(specifically to fix the missing 4 characters in array posts) This bug is definitely a show-stopper. There are _many_ PHP-applications out there that use arrays in forms, and many of these are screwed up. For those who can choose their PHP-Version, it means sticking to 4.2.2 For those who can't, it means either doing ugly workarounds or (if they can't chance the source), being out of business until 4.3 is out, which won't be tomorrow. Bad. Some of us have been totally screwed by this bug - since our isp's have updated to 4.2.3 and left everyone's sites totally broken. They refuse to drop back to old version and are leaving everyone up the creek until php 4.3.0 is in final release or a 4.2.3 patch is released. Time for a 4.2.3pl1, I think. regards Wagner -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
