 Bug Type:         PostgreSQL related
 Operating System: Ubuntu 7.04
 PHP Version:      5.2.6

Description:
------------
I'm using Ubuntu Feisty Fawn 7.04 with Apache with PHP 5.2.4 and
Postgres v.8.2.4.

I have noticed that, when querys are run, logical variables are not
correctly assigned.
E.g. being 'lists' the table defined by the SQL sentence:

CREATE TABLE lists
(
  active boolean NOT NULL DEFAULT true,
  reference serial NOT NULL,
  caducated boolean NOT NULL DEFAULT false,
  name character varying(100) NOT NULL,
  ...
)

and the PHP code 
// creation of the SQL sentence
   $consulta="SELECT * FROM lists WHERE ((referencie=".$mykey.") AND   


              (active=true))";
// Execution 
$result = pg_query($consulta) 
          or die('Error in SQL query:'.pg_last_error());

if (pg_num_rows($resultado)>0) {                { 
        $line = pg_fetch_array($result, null, PGSQL_ASSOC);
        if ($line["caducated"]==true) 
                {  ... -code executed if condition=true-  }
        else
                {  ... -code executed if condition=false-  }
   ...

I realized that the 'else' code was executed ALWAYS. It did not matter
if the condition was $line["caducated"]==True, or TRUE, or 1, or False
or FALSE or 0.

I noticed that logical variables are assigned to 't' or 'f' instead of
'true' or 'false' (or numbers) and their type is not correct (the
result of gettype($line["caducated"]) is "string"- , so, the only way to
execute correctly the 'if' sentence is by typing "if
($line["caducated"]=='t')" (or "$line["caducated"]=='f'")
which violates the reference syntax of PHP, that states that to specify
a boolean literal we have to use keywords TRUE or FALSE (both
case-insensitive).


Also, sometimes, asignation of variables inside the if or else blocks
is made in a wrong way.
