PHP Bug Type: Zend Engine 2 problem
Bug description: using an object as a string parameter converts it to a string
Description:
------------
Tidy-PHP binding documentation is not very clear (yep, I will RTFS
someday) but in each example uses the output $tidy object directly in an
"echo" just to output it's value, using (I guess) it's internal
__toString() method.
As far as I do "echo" it, no problem, but passing it to a string-accepting
function actually converts it to a string instead of just using the output
of its toString method.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$tidy = tidy_parse_string('<b>Just a try', array(), 'UTF8');
$a = htmlspecialchars($tidy . '');
echo gettype($tidy) . ', ';
$a = htmlspecialchars($tidy);
echo gettype($tidy);
Expected result:
----------------
Output: object, object
Actual result:
--------------
Output: object, string
