note 26681 added to function.phpversion

Interfear's Jun 9 example could benefit from intval, but the following examples have another problem. Consider testing version 3.0.19 (hypothetical) against 4.1.0. Given the str_replace(), we end up with: if ( 3019 >= 410 ) Which returns true even though the version is much older. So, something like this should work better: function check_phpver($version) { // split versions into arrays. $test = explode( '.', $version ); $curr = explode( '.', phpversion() ); // do intval conversion. foreach( $test as $k => $v ) { $test[$k] = intval($v); } foreach( $curr as $k => $v ) { $curr[$k] = intval($v); } // do comparison. if ( $test[0] < $curr[0] ) { return true; } if ( $test[0] == $curr[0] && $test[1] < $curr[1] ) { return true; } if ( $test[0] == $curr[0] && $test[1] == $curr[1] && $test[2] <= $curr[2] ) { return true; } return false; } -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.phpversion.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+26681 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+26681 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+26681
