i ran into this problem and i dont remember how i worked around it. if($_REQUEST['value'] == 1) { // do something } else if($_REQUEST['value'] == 0) { // do something } even if i don't do ?value=0 its always prints something.. i want to make an on/off value based on the value of the url.. 1 for yes, 0 for no. but i only want false IF its declared in the url.. i dont want to use a number other than 0, workaround? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
