Re: Bug #1259 Updated: Double in a string comparision bug after conve

Hello Bug, On 23-Mar-99 12:41:11, you wrote: >PHP's string conversion routines supress any trailing zeros, very >much on purpose. If you want to force a certain amount of decimal >digits, use printf() or sprintf() instead of echo or print. Actually that is not the problem. Just compare the strings "1" and "1." (echo "1"=="1.") and you'll see the bug. It seems PHP converts the strings to numbers before comparing even though that's not what's meant because both sides of the comparision are strings.
