Note Submitter: bdavis at cove-mtn dot com ---- >>Something I found out the "hard" way today: integers starting with 0 won't >>work. Integers starting with a 0 are octal and do work. The example included 9s and so failed parsing. >>Constant name must not written as string. The following code works also: Constant names not written as strings will produce warnings in your error log because evaluating a constant to get a name is legal. <?php define("FOO", "bar"); define("SC", 0777); define(FOO, 1232); // this is the same as define("bar", 1232); var_dump(SC); // prints 511 var_dump(bar); // prints 1232 ?>
