This is just for reference that the value is false */ // We can also assign it to a variable then echo and var_dump $c = $a==$b; echo $c; // This should output false or 0, but it didn't output anything var_dump($c); /* This will output Boolean false. This is just for reference that the value is false */ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70608&edit=1
