'TRUE [good ternary]' : 'FALSE [good ternary]'); yields: TRUE [bad ternary] FALSE [good ternary] this is because the ternary evaluates '<div>'.(FALSE) not (FALSE) - so the end result is TRUE ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 169.200.185.24 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.comparison.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/103597 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103597/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103597/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103597/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103597/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103597/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103597/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103597 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/103597 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
