note 111724 added to function.curl-exec

if you are doing a negative test against curl_exec and other variables and you need to use the returned result to save to file or display, you have to place the curl_exec test inside brackets, for example: <?php if( (!$result = curl_exec( $c )) || curl_error( $c) ){ trigger_error( curl_error( $c ) ); } # now you can use $result to write the returned contents to a file with for example fopen() ?> if you don't include the curl_exec in brackets it will only return a resource value. i don't know if this is normal behavior or a bug as it does not occur when it is a positive test. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.199 Probable Submitter: 113.10.31.110 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.curl-exec.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/111724 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111724/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111724/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111724/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111724/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111724/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111724/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/111724 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/111724 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
