From: Operating system: *nix & windows PHP version: 5.3.6 Package: Output Control Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:isset && is_numeric Description: ------------ I would kill for a way to do isset && check if the value is s specific data type such as numeric. My code is loaded with if(isset($a) && is_numeric($a)). It would be nice to do that in a single function (isset($a,[is_numeric])). Thank you taking the time to read my request. Expected result: ---------------- $var = isset($a,[is_numeric]); $var = true,false Actual result: -------------- $var = isset($a,[is_numeric]); $var = true,false -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=54307&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=54307&r=mysqlcfg
