Note Submitter: tenoria ---- Remember that when you are comparing an integer with a string, the string will be casted to integer as a zero. So if you try to compare 0 == anything, this will be TRUE. http://es2.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php #language.types.string.conversion imagine you are using a foreach to iterate an array of mixed index: <?php $dummy = array (0=>Blue, 1=>Red, solution=>Yellow); foreach ($dummy as $key=>$color){ if ($key == 'solution'){ echo "The winner is".$color; } ?> this will output "Blue", because 0=='solution' is true. hope this helped some other newbies like me :-) ---- Reason: useless note
