ID: 24351 User updated by: php at glaciersoftware dot com Reported By: php at glaciersoftware dot com Status: Bogus Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: Linux 2.4.20-18.8 RedHat 8.0 PHP Version: 4.3.1 New Comment:
You're right, it is totally bogus. The problem was caused by a third-party program running on my computer which watches the TCP/IP stack and filters raw data for the Internet Explorer process running on my Windows XP box and prevents pop-ups, ads, etc. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-26 17:52:40] [EMAIL PROTECTED] And I can't reproduce anything like what you've described here, it's totally bogus. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-26 17:51:28] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please don't submit same bug twice. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-26 15:37:52] php at glaciersoftware dot com Description: ------------ For some unknown reason, the PHP scripting engine seems to replacing the word "status" with "foo1" when an equal-sign, 0x3d, appears within 6 characters of the word "status". Bug was reported on http://bugs.php.net as Bug #21851, but status was changed to CLOSED after someone was not able to duplicate the problem. Tested Environment ================== The following webservers were used to test the below code for the existance of this problem: * PHP 4.2.1 with Apache/1.3.24 running on Linux 2.4.18-3 RedHat 7.3 * PHP 4.3.1 with Apache/2.0.43 running on Linux 2.4.20-18.8 RedHat 8.0 Code ==== The following code should replicate the problem. The "<br>\n" appended to the echo() call is used only for readability, the problem will still exist without this string added. << See Reproduce Code >> Reproduce code: --------------- <?php // *** Note the 6 spaces, 0x20, between the word status and the equal-sign // *** the word "status" will be replaced with "foo1" $buf = "foo1 = 'C' "; echo($buf . "<br>\n"); // *** The number of spaces has been changed from 6 to 7 // *** now it doesn't replace "status" with "foo1" $buf = "status = 'C' "; echo($buf . "<br>\n"); ?> Expected result: ---------------- status = 'C' <br> status = 'C' <br> Actual result: -------------- foo1 = 'C' <br> status = 'C' <br> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=24351&edit=1
