RE: [PHP-DB] string compare function

post the entire line of code, (and the surrounding couple of lines?? and we'll get more of an idea. -----Original Message----- From: tomhilton [mailto:tom-hilton@home.com] Sent: 17 January 2002 14:56 To: php-db@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP-DB] string compare function Hi, I'm having a problem with the stcmp() function. I have it comparing two string variables, $pword and $conf_pword, in a script. I know they both have values, but the result always compares to 1 when $pword is the first variable in the function, and -1 when $pword is the 2nd variable in the function, no matter what string values are in the variables. It seems like the function is comparing the literal name "$pword" and "$conf_pword", not their values. I am working on a Win98 machine, does anyone have any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong?
