I get this in my app after updating from 1.5.1
Fatal error: Cannot unset string offsets in W:\www\system\helpers\form_helper.php on line 201

Looking into it I found that Gallery had the same problem:

I do not understand the nature of the change as I am not fluent in PHP5. Can anyone look into it?

Also, do look into my fix for the HTML Tables class in another thread below ^^

It happens when the first param is a string. I think it also happens in PHP5
Solution is replacing that line for

if (is_array($data) && isset($data['value'])) unset ($data['value']); // textareas don't use the value attribute

Yeah, forgot to mention that this error happens in PHP5 (and seemingly PHP5 only).

the fix works, thanks =)
