For interest's sake the following code:

$x = 0;
if ($x == "foo") {
        echo "This is an integer comparison with foo being ".$x."<br>";
}
$y = true;
if ($y == "foo") {
        echo "This is a boolean comparison with foo being ".$y."<br>";
}

prints:

This is an integer comparison with foo being 0
This is a boolean comparison with foo being 1

Cheers

Hmm, shouldn't a filled string ("foo") evaluate to TRUE, ie. to 1?
