Bug #1649: ltrim() behaves much like trim()

From: pallas@kadan.cz Operating system: RedHat Linux 6.0, Kernel 2.2.10, Apache 1.3.6 PHP version: 3.0.11 PHP Bug Type: Misbehaving function Bug description: ltrim() behaves much like trim() After switching from PHP 3.0.7 to PHP 3.0.11 I found out that ltrim() behaves much like trim() e.g. it strips newlines (maybe whitespace as well) from the _end_ of the supplied string as well. I put up a test script at http://uf.kadan.cz/~pallas/ltrimtest.php3 and its source at http://uf.kadan.cz/~pallas/ltrimtest.phps. The script produces the same result in browser, but if you look at the page source, you can clearly see, that the newlines have been stripped where ltrim() was applied. For more information about PHP environment, I've put up a phpinfo() at http://uf.kadan.cz/~pallas/info.php3. I hope it's enough information provided. I configured PHP using the following configuration line: configure \ --with-zlib \ --with-gd \ --with-gdbm \ --with-pgsql=/opt/postgres \ --with-shared-apache=../apache_1.3.6 \ --with-exec-dir=/home/httpd/CGI \ --enable-track-vars=yes
