Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=62722&edit=1 ID: 62722 Updated by: rasmus@php.net Reported by: bo0rsh201 at gmail dot com Summary: incorrect comparison result -Status: Open +Status: Not a bug Type: Bug Package: Variables related Operating System: Win7 PHP Version: 5.4.5 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: '1'==1 That is, (int)'1' == 1 So (int)'hello world' == 0 it is consistent Weak typing means there will be type juggling when you compare different types. Use === if you want to prevent type juggling. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-08-02 06:59:20] bo0rsh201 at gmail dot com Description: ------------ comparision of integer 0 and any string always returns true the problem is independent from operands order. Test script: --------------- <?php // the following code returns true var_dump(('hello world' == 0)); // the same thing var_dump((0 == 'hello world')); Expected result: ---------------- I think it has to return false, matching inequal variables ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=62722&edit=1
