[php-maint] Bug#602812: Bug#602812: php5: a posted array limited to 999 elements

severity 602812 normal
tag 602812 +unreproducible
thank you

1) please read an info on bug severities:
http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#severities

2) have you tried setting bigger post_max_size? Your test script works
just fine on my system. I guess it will be more a configuration issue
on your side than some arbitrary hidden limit in a php5.
