note 102238 added to function.is-numeric

The result from is_numeric() is not very usable where i work. Fx. is_numeric(' 2345') returns true, but in our world this is not a legal number, because of the space. And for some reason is_numeric('2345 ') and is_numeric(' 2345 ') returns false. Here i would expect true, when ' 2345' also are true. ---- Server IP: 195.184.96.15 Probable Submitter: 89.233.12.34 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.is-numeric.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/102238 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102238/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102238/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102238/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102238/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102238/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102238/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102238 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/102238 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
