note 47341 added to function.ip2long

This seems obvious in hindsight, but since nobody else posted it, it had me and two others scratching our heads. Thought I'd save someone else the trouble... In mySQL, you can use the INET_ATON() function, but to save queries, you could use this function. However, the catch is that PHP returns negative values, so you have to use it like this: $LongIP = sprintf('%u', ip2long($dotted_name)); ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ip2long.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+47341 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47341&report=yes Reason: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47341&report=yes&reason=bad+code Reason: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47341&report=yes&reason=spam Reason: useless example -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47341&report=yes&reason=useless+example Reason: contains commercial links -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47341&report=yes&reason=contains+commercial+links Reason: useless note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47341&report=yes&reason=useless+note Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+47341&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
