note 77076 added to function.isset

The behavior of isset is complex and the results are sometimes not what people expected -- to their peril. After dealing with isset() for awhile and peppering my code with additional checks for edge cases. I eventually got to know and love empty() Most of the places that you are using isset(), empty() would do a better job. And when you are dealing with arrays what you probably want to use instead of isset() is array_key_exists() These days, I almost never use isset() and I write a lot of code. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 75.165.42.51 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.isset.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/77076 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77076/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77076/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77076/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77076/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77076/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77076/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77076 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/77076 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
