note 67972 added to function.sizeof

here is a significant gotcha! sizeof($a) gives the size of $a when $a is an array. but call it on a string and it will return 1. it won't treat a string like a char array, as the c language does. to get the size of a string, use strlen. also, there is no end of string character counted by strlen. ---- Server IP: 216.194.113.175 Probable Submitter: 71.118.124.202 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.sizeof.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/note/edit/67972 Del: integrated -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/67972/integrated Del: useless -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/67972/useless Del: bad code -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/67972/bad+code Del: spam -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/67972/spam Del: non-english -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/67972/non-english Del: in docs -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/67972/in+docs Del: other reasons-- http://master.php.net/note/delete/67972 Reject -- http://master.php.net/note/reject/67972 Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
