#25414 [Bgs->Opn]: All variables == 08 | 09 | 00

ID: 25414 User updated by: webmaster at demomusic dot nu Reported By: webmaster at demomusic dot nu -Status: Bogus +Status: Open Bug Type: Output Control Operating System: WinXP, Unix PHP Version: 4.3.3 New Comment: I still see this as a bug, since my script doesn't act the expected way because of it. I am using it in a <select>: <option value=01 <?if ($form_hour == 01) echo "selected";?>>01 <option value=01 <?if ($form_hour == 02) echo "selected";?>>02 etc <option value=01 <?if ($form_hour == 08) echo "selected";?>>08 And when $form_hour is == to 02 or anything under 09, the selected <option> is always 09. Irritating, and a bug, in my eyes Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-09-07 11:39:53] webmaster at demomusic dot nu Can't find any general information about them octal numbers, maybe someone could post some info about this here? http://www.google.com/search?q=octal%2Bnumbers+site:www.php.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-09-07 11:30:34] derick@php.net Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug.
