Why use array("$new_cat",...,"$assigned_by");
Loose the quotes: array ($new_cat,...,$assigned_by);

You don't need to use implode(). Just return the array. In the
calling function you can then get the results in two ways:

  $results = assign(); /* $results is an array */
or
  list ($new_cat,...,$assigned_by) = assign();

If you want a better answer on what is going wrong, you'll need to
send some more code. Eg the code that you've now replaced by <form>.
It might just be that the error is in that part.
