There is one exception, if/var/is*NULL*,/0/will be returned." Yes I know, but I wonder what is the master reason behind this line of doing things ? The fact that something is documented shoudn't make it automatically right. Are there scripts where people are putting strings into count by purpose, not by an accident ? Is this behavior having some grand purpose behind id, or is it just a historical accident for early days of php ? -- Best regards, rsk82 mailto:rsk82@xxxxxxxx -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
