note 30588 added to function.strcmp

For some reason the strcmp fails for this function if the $item_to_compare->ID = "AB123" or some similar string. This happened even though $ID = "AB123": <pre> function item_exists($ID) { // returns 0 for error global $item_list; // this is an array of class objects if (is_array($item_list)) { foreach ($item_list as $key => $item_to_compare) { if (!strcmp($item_to_compare->ID, $ID)) { unset ($item_list); return $key; } } } // Else fail unset ($item_list); return 0; } </pre> So I was forced to do this: <pre> function item_exists($ID) { // returns 0 for error global $item_list; if (is_array($item_list)) { for($i = 0; $i < count($item_list); $i++) { if (!strcmp($item_list[$i]->ID, $ID)) { unset ($item_list); return $i; } } } // Else fail unset ($item_list); return 0; } </pre> -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strcmp.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+30588 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+30588 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+30588
