                 Key: CODEC-57
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CODEC-57
             Project: Commons Codec
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.3
         Environment: Commons-codec built from source using jdk 1.4.2.
OS: Windows XP
Java Build: 1.4.2
            Reporter: Adam Wilmore


An empty string is returned from the Metaphone.metaphone(String) method when 
passed the value "why". Variations on the value, such as "wwwhy" and "wwhhhy" 
also return empty strings.

This appears to be an issue since other implementations of the metaphone 
algorithm, namely the PHP version, returns "H" when passed the value "why".
