note 98673 added to function.strpos

Even with error_reporting(E_ALL), the following generates confusing logic errors, but no syntax errors. Is this a bug in php? I don't know, but this can't be correct! Hope this saves someone else some headaches! <?php $str1 = 'hai'; $str2 = 'what is this, i dont even! so anyways i says to mabel i says....'; echo 'String 1 is: '.$str1.'<br />'; echo 'String 2 is: '.$str2.'<br /><br />'; echo 'incorrect behavior<br />'; if(strpos($str1,$str2 === false)) { // this wont work, yet no syntax errors are fired off // this will never work echo 'string not found!<br />'; } else { // this will instead fire every time even if the string is not in there echo 'string found!<br />'; } echo '<br />'; echo 'correct behavior<br />'; if(strpos($str1,$str2) === false) { // this will actually fire off echo 'string not found!<br />'; } else { echo 'string found!<br />'; } ?> ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 75.4.249.49 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strpos.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/98673 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98673/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98673/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98673/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98673/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98673/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98673/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98673 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/98673 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
