Re: PHP Editor - which to use?

if($pos_params!=false)

Assuming it's a boolean, $pos_params is *already* true or false, so testing it like this is pretty much pointless. It makes more sense (and is much more readable IMHO) to do something like this: if ($pos_params) { // something }

From the futher reading of the code we are able to deduct it can be also an integer:

    $back_url_params =
        substr( $HTTP_GET_VARS['origin'], $pos_params + 1 );

but then testing it this way: if($pos_params!==false) would be more appropriate in this case. For those interested this code snippet was taken from oscommerce. Marek
