Old Summary: ('foo'==0) => equal ?
Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Old Status: Open
Status: Bogus
Bug Type: Variables related
Operating System: i688-gnu-linux
PHP Version: 4.0CVS-2002-01-24
New Comment:It's indeed due to automatic conversion. The vars get converted to ints, and the integer value of 'foo' = 0 Use if ($a === $b) to check for both value and type. Derick Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-24 06:15:26] [EMAIL PROTECTED] A simple condition with a strange result: <?php $a='foo'; $b=0; if ($a==$b) echo 'equal'; else echo 'not equal'; ?> result: $a and $b is equal, but if $b unequal zero the condition results 'not equal' This is not really rationally. Is the problem the automatic type casting?
