note 101976 added to function.in-array

There should be a big red warning sign here because this function behaves in mysterious ways... let haystack be an array of integers: $arr = array(1,2,3,4,5); let $needle be a string of "2foobar" then in_array($needle,$arr) will return true because string ("2foobar") evaluates to integer (2). ---- Server IP: 80.81.171.181 Probable Submitter: 194.100.53.62 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.in-array.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/101976 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101976/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101976/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101976/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101976/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101976/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101976/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/101976 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/101976 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
