By the way, it looks like this bug may be a duplicate of Bug #21089. 
Perhaps this is simply an undocumented change.

I ran into this issue myself in 4.3.2, and found that the workaround is
to use the mssql_next_result() function before attempting to access the
retval and any output parameters.  I also found that I don't need to
pass the variables by reference.

Here is the code that works for me in 4.3.2:

<?php 

$conn=mssql_connect("myhost","user","pwd"); 

if ($conn) { 
mssql_select_db("mydb",$conn); 

$stmt=mssql_init("procedure",$conn); 
mssql_bind($stmt,"RETVAL",$val,SQLINT4); 

$ival=11; 
$fval=2.1416; 
$sval="Frank"; 

mssql_bind($stmt,"@sval",$sval,SQLVARCHAR,TRUE); 
mssql_bind($stmt,"@intval",$ival,SQLINT4,TRUE); 
mssql_bind($stmt,"@floatval",$fval,SQLFLT8,TRUE); 

$result=mssql_execute($stmt); 

$arr=mssql_fetch_row($result); 
print ("Answer: " . $arr[0] . "
" ); 
mssql_next_result($result);
print ("RETVAL = $val ; intval = $ival ; floatval = $fval ; string =
$sval"); 

mssql_close($conn); 
} 
else print("ooops!"); 
?>

I hope this helps!

Yes, I verified that this is also happening with 4.3.2.  I thought,
based on a comment in the manual, that this was not an issue in the
4.3.2 release.

I also verified that the bound values are making it *into* the stored
procedure w/o incident.  (E.g. I can add them to the returned result
row to see that the stored procedure is aware of the values.)

Does this happen with PHP 4.3.2 ?

Description:
------------
When using mssql_bind() to bind an output variable, the variable is
passed into the stored procedure but the modified value is not
returned.  (The variable is being passed by reference to mssql_bind()).

Reproduce code:
---------------
I used the following user-contributed example from mssql_execute manual
page.


if we have this procedure: 

CREATE PROCEDURE [procedure] 
( 
  @sval varchar(50) OUTPUT, 
  @intval int OUTPUT, 
  @floatval decimal(6,4) OUTPUT 
) AS 

if @intval is null 
select '@intval is null' as answer 
else 
select '@intval is NOT null' as answer 

set @sval='Hello ' + @sval 
set @[EMAIL PROTECTED] 
set @[EMAIL PROTECTED] 

return 10 

We can use this PHP code: 

<?php 

$conn=mssql_connect("myhost","user","pwd"); 

if ($conn) { 
mssql_select_db("mydb",$conn); 

$stmt=mssql_init("procedure",$conn); 
mssql_bind($stmt,"RETVAL",&$val,SQLINT4); 

$ival=11; 
$fval=2.1416; 
$sval="Frank"; 

mssql_bind($stmt,"@sval",&$sval,SQLVARCHAR,TRUE); 
mssql_bind($stmt,"@intval",&$ival,SQLINT4,TRUE); 
mssql_bind($stmt,"@floatval",&$fval,SQLFLT8,TRUE); 

$result=mssql_execute($stmt); 

$arr=mssql_fetch_row($result); 
print ("Answer: " . $arr[0] . "
" ); 
print ("RETVAL = $val ; intval = $ival ; floatval = $fval ; string =
$sval"); 

mssql_close($conn); 
} 
else print("ooops!"); 


Expected result:
----------------
Answer: @intval is NOT nullRETVAL = 10 ; intval = 12 ; floatval =
3.1416 ; string = Hello Frank

Actual result:
--------------
Answer: @intval is NOT nullRETVAL = 0 ; intval = 11 ; floatval = 2.1416
; string = Frank
