False doesn't cause mixed (howto/working)
Yeah I know! I've already read/change it several times.
Quoting howto:
"Do not use mixed, if the return value is of a certain (not boolean) type,
and FALSE only on error. Provide the primary return type as the return type
of the function, and write down in the explanation, that it returns FALSE on
error. Use &return.success; if the function returns TRUE on success, and
FALSE on failure."
These functions return FALSE on normal operation, not on error.
mysql_connect() for example returns a resource on success or false on
failure. there you shoudn't use mixed.
In this case, the return of false means not found, not a error, ence the use
of mixed. (those pages even have the entity to explain how to use the ===
operator..)
