Hi Mathew,
Perhaps it is the default HtmlEntities output filter that is causing your issue.
If so, then the following should show the expected integer value.
var_dump ($input->getUnescaped('field'));
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Eric

Subject: [fw-general] Zend_Filter_Input converting to String
Why is it that Zend_Filter_Input appears to convert items that have been
filtered to Int values back into a String?
For instance:
$filters = array ('field' => 'Int');
$validators = array ('field' => 'Digits');
$data = array ('field' => '1234');
$input = new Zend_Filter_Input ($filters, $validators, $data);
var_dump ($input->field);
The following gives:
string(4) "1234"
Is this by design or am I missing something along the line somewhere?
