Note Submitter: php at cybercow se ---- Just to add to what freshprincecharming discovered. When you do a comparsion between 0 and '1asdf' you get true, but not when comparing 0 and 'asdf'.. A little example down. function writeCompare($value1, $value2) { echo('<br> Type:'.(gettype($value1).' == '.gettype($value2 ))); echo(' ('.($value1.' == '.$value2).') ANSWER '.($value1 == $value2)); } echo('<pre>'); writeCompare(0, 'asdf'); // (0 == asdf) ANSWER 1 writeCompare(0, '1adf'); // (0 == 1adf) ANSWER writeCompare(1, 'asdf'); // (1 == asdf) ANSWER writeCompare(1, '1adf'); // (1 == 1adf) ANSWER 1 echo('</pre>');
