#30221 [NEW]: Cookies & booleans

From: wescotte at earthlink dot net Operating system: Win XP PHP version: 5.0.1 PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: Cookies & booleans Description: ------------ I was attempting to set a cookie using a boolean. TRUE works correctly as 1 but setting it FALSE would not save a cookie at all. Reproduce code: --------------- setcookie("name",FALSE,time()+60*60); if you print_r($_COOKIE); it won't display name as being in the $_COOKIE array but if you setcookie("name",TRUE,time()+60*60); it lists name == 1 in $_COOKIE Expected result: ---------------- If it's a by design issue it might be a good idea to include this in the docs stating not to use booleans with cookies. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=30221&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=float MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30221&r=mysqlcfg
