title: Getting value from pipeline property in powershell
body: <p>Can anyone tell me why I am able to get the value for the Website but not the WebServer using the below command?</p>
  
  <p>$DeploySetting.setting is as follows:</p>
  
  <p><strong>Name-------------Value</strong></p>
  
  <p>Website----------XXXXX</p>
  
  <p>WebServer------ServXX</p>
  
  <p>WebServer------ServYY</p>
  
  <pre><code>$script:webSite = ($DeploySetting.setting | Where-Object {$_.name -eq  "Website"}).value
  $script:webServers = ($DeploySetting.setting | Where-Object {$_.name -eq "WebServer"}).value
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is it because there are two values in <code>$DeploySetting.setting</code> for WebServer? shouldn't this just store in the varibale as a string array?</p>
  
  <p>Powershell Version:</p>
  
  <p>CLRVersion                     2.0.50727.5485<br>
  BuildVersion                   6.1.7601.17514<br>
