Test script: --------------- $haystack = "foob\x00ar"; $char_list = "a\x00b"; $v = strpbrk($haystack, $char_list); Expected result: ---------------- $v === "b\x00ar" Actual result: -------------- $v === FALSE ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=60801&edit=1
