Bug #3922 Updated: == bug

ID: 3922 Updated by: hholzgra Reported By: fuf@fuf.sh.cvut.cz Status: Closed Bug Type: Misbehaving function Assigned To: Comments: it's not a bug, it's a feature :( (same in php4) you compare an integer to a string, the string is converted to an integer and as 'N/A' does not contain any digits its integer value is 0, so they are equal the other way round it wouldn't: 0 == 'N/A' -> true 'N/A' == 0 -> false or in php4 you could use '===' instead of '==' rather missleading, maybe string->integer conversion should return something like not-a-number instead of 0 in this case ?
