Have you tried reading your array values back to simple variables?

<?php
while(list($var,$val) = each($_REQUEST)) {
        $invals .= $var . "=" . $val . "&";
}
$invals = substr_replace($invals, "", -1); // removes the last "&" sign.
echo $invals;
?>

You can also create $var <-> $val pairs and separate them with ";" instead
of "&". and naturally add "$" to the front of the $var. Then you can just
do eval($invals, ";") and all detected variables with values are there to
use.

for example:
URL: http://mydomain.com/myscript.php?myvar=myval&yourvar=yourval
(Should work with $_POST also...)

<?php
while(list($var,$val) = each($_REQUEST)) {
        $invals .= "$" . $var . "=" . $val . ";";
}
eval($invals, ";");
?>

And you should have all posted variables with the names they were posted
as if they were defined like below..
$myvar = "myval";
$yourvar = "yourval";

Okke... back to work.......
