Hi, These are the results and questions from some tests I run yesterday on the last 4.0.5 release candidate. Note that all differences are from PHP 4.0.4pl1. 1. The function array_flip($array) puts one extra zero byte at the end of each element in the return array thus making the result non binary safe. 2. The nl2br function was modified to produce the correct tag <br /> instead the opening only one <br>. Wouldn't this affect somehow the existing applications? The nl2br() function is widely used and all modification to its output should be done *extremely* carefully. 3. The count_chars() function returns different result from the 4.0.4pl1 count_chars() function. 4. Where is the connection_timeout() function. Was it removed on purpose? 5. The following expression returns empty string: get_cfg_var("error_reporting") (I think this may be my problem in the testing).
