$iListItems is set when a user chooses how many list elements they require (this is for the example pages I was asking about) and is always greater than 0 (we don't get this far in the script if it's not!).
Anyway, it was my silly fault, I had changed the name of my form elements whilst trying to fix it but hadn't gone back to the very begining in my browser so my loop was looking for the wrong post names! Doh!
Thanks,
Jon

I can't see the whole script, so this is just guess work - but your loop is checking to see if $i (1) is less than $iListItems, but as far as I can see this isn't defined anywhere in your code, so the loop will never actually go through because it's saying 1 <= 0.
Where is $iListItems set and to what value?
Your loop will work, but it's not obvious it's getting the chance to.
Also you don't need to array_push it, you could just do:
$aListItems[] = $tempItem;
