#51010 [NEW]: Bad example

From: chris dot dickinson at web dot de Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: Bad example Description: ------------ Hi, On your page http://ch2.php.net/manual/en/function.trigger-error.php you give only this example <?php if (assert($divisor == 0)) { trigger_error("Cannot divide by zero", E_USER_ERROR); } ?> It seems badly chosen. If $divisor is 0 then the assertion succeeds, when actually you would probably not want $divisor to be 0 (!). If $divisor is anything else but 0, the assertion will fail and give you an error message. I got: "Warning: assert() [function.assert]: Assertion failed in ..."
