The content being received is a single numeric value 0 which fread returns as false and is not detected even with (false === $ret). However, if the number is changed to single numeric value 1, then fread returns 1 as a string as expected and (1 === $ret) fails confirming that the $ret is actually a string. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53753&edit=1
