RE: PHP 4.0 Bug #9883 Updated: octal representation

Thank you for your quick response, May I suggest to, in future updates, implement this feature in a different syntax, for example 0c instead of 0 for Octals, because I think a number starting with a zero, the zero should be ignored as in most languages.

You can strip the null from the resulting string later, bu you have to do that by hand.

Now I found that this results in the Decimal value of the Octal-integer. for example: 035 will be represented as: 29 Is this a bug or hidden feature? If this is not a bug, then is there any other way to pass a decimal value starting with a 0 (zero)?
