Zero evaluates to false when PHP is going to parse the || operator, and because of that, it continues to parse the rest. When the result of ip2long($ip) is greater that zero, in case of some other valid IP, it will evaluate to true and PHP will not even execute the rest after the || because the result will be true anyway. Did you mean to use a single | operator, as a bitwise OR? - Matijn -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
