note 49889 added to function.ldap-search

I was doing a ldap_search with $searchbasedn = "miDomainName=" . $_SESSION['selectDomain'] ."," . LDAP_DOMAINBASE; $filter = "(&(mpsAccountNumber=". $acctNumber .")(objectclass=mpsAccountDetails))"; $attributes = array("mpsparentchild"); $sr = ldap_search($ldapconn, $searchbasedn, $filter,$attributes); For some reasone this search was failing but I was able to do successful search only when I gave the search filter as $filter = "(&(mpsAccountNumber= $acctNumber )(objectclass=mpsAccountDetails))"; I did not get why the ldap_search was not able to search in the first case. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ldap-search.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+49889 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49889&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49889&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49889&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49889&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49889&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+49889&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
