Bug Type: Strings related
Operating System: Linux Debian 2.2r2 (testing)
PHP Version: 4.0.6
New Comment:
This never used to be the case.. < 4.0.4
So basically don't use == to compare strings? Does PHP convert to numbers when doing
'test' == 'test'?
I have this situation
<?php
// snip
$row = pg_fetch_row($result, 0);
while( list($field, $value) == each($row) )
{
if( $field == 'stateid' )
echo get_state_selector($conn, $value);
else
echo $value;
}?>
pg_fetch_row by default returns keys as field names and as array elements.
get_state_selector gets outputed for both $row[0] and $row[stateid]. I know I can
change pg_fetch_row (which I will) to output field names only, but I haven't run into
this in the past. Has something changed? (There was a point pre 4.0.3 where zero (0)
didn't equal empty, and now it does.. as in
$test = 0;
if( empty($test) )
echo "blah";
)

You miss something :) Strings will be converted to a number first, which is not
possible. The result of this conversion is 0, and (0 == 0) => TRUE.

When strings are compared to 0, they always return TRUE.
<?php
$test = 'somestring';
if( $test == 'somestring')
echo "Match 1\n";
if( $test == 0 )
echo "Match 2\n";
if( $test == 1 )
echo "Match 3\n";
if( $test != 0 )
echo "Match 4\n";
if( $test != 'somestring' )
echo "Match 5\n";
if( $test != 1 )
echo "Match 6\n";
?>
Expected Output:
Match 1
Actual Ouput:
Match 1
Match 2
Match 6
Is there something I'm missing?
