#41946 [NEW]: Minor detail missing in documentation.

From: youare at loss4words dot com Operating system: Debian 4.0 PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: Minor detail missing in documentation. Description: ------------ Documentation for ip2long needs a little more detail. It says that it returns FALSE if the argument passed is not a valid IP address, and says this returned -1 before version 5. It should also mention that if it is passed an empty argument that it will still return -1. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php echo "<br />Result: " . ip2long("10.10.10.10"); // returns long echo "<br />Result: " . ip2long("not.an.ip.address"); // returns FALSE echo "<br />Result: " . ip2long(""); // should return FALSE, returns -1 ?> Expected result: ---------------- Result: 168430090 Result: Result: Actual result: -------------- Result: 168430090 Result: Result: -1 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=41946&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=41946&r=mysqlcfg
