Description

It seems that mutlivalue properties are not properly supported by the ScriptableNode.get(String) method. The construct

someNode.prop

should return an array of values if the property is multi-valued even in the case of the array only containing a single value.

Paul Davis reported in [1] that the construct

<% for(var i=0; i <currentNode.trackId.length; i++)

{ %> <div><%= currentNode.trackId[i] %></div> <% }

%>

listed the single characters of the single value of the trackid property in case the trackid is a multi-valued property with just a single value. The actual property seems to be a proper multivalue property because

var items = currentNode.getProperty("trackId").values;
for( var i=0; i < items.length; i++ )

{ ... }

works correctly.
