The result type of curl_exec should always be string, except when it fails, when it's FALSE (bool) (Or maybe it's 0 (int) ??? rtfm) The error message is not actually part of $result nor gettype. It is being spewed out to stderr (pipe 2) and splatted to your terminal screen in the middle of stdout (pipe 1) confusing you, perhaps. I'm not sure where the 0 and 11 bit is coming from, but if you want the first part only: $data = (int) $result; should get only the first portion of the integral result. -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
