They can be up to 20 characters long in FoxPro and Clipper. Even 10 characters is more than we can fit in a long right? So, this is a bug even for numbers represented by 10 characters. Question: Should we just return those large numbers as text (since we do not have an appropriate datatype in PHP) and say so clearly in documentation, or should we just always return them as text (which is more consistent, and shouldn't break too many things since text and integers in PHP are not all that different as far as users are concerned. I'd opt for the first option. It won't break anyone's stuff, and will allow people with large integers to still use it. I want to see if anyone has a different opinion, and if not, I'll implement a fix (first option). I'll also assign it to myself (hope nobody minds) Vlad ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-03-16 14:46:36] [EMAIL PROTECTED] this also seems to do funny things to HTTP_SERVER_VARS['argv'] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2000-09-29 09:15:22] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This isn't fixed. --Jani ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2000-08-23 08:55:38] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Is this one fixed in newer versions of php4?
