Note Submitter: rb ---- This is one of the annoying things in PHP. Since when is "0" an empty string??? It is a string of legth 1, with the 0 character. This bad convention is very annoying. If you have a drop down list with an item with value zero, and that you filter out the empty submitted values, the value of the dropdown will be filtered out! I guess the sae applies when you enter 0 in a text field. Very bad behaviour in my opinion. ---- Reason: useless note
