I tried dumping values of two expressions, they are both > boolean and correct value. Tried assigning values to two temp vars and > then or-ing these two, and that gave correct results. = has a higher precedence than OR and OR is not the same as || http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.php#language.operators.precedence So you should use $b1 = is_null($x) || ($y > 5); ---John Holmes...
