ID: 62586 Comment by: mail+php at requinix dot net Reported by: dattaya108 at gmail dot com Summary: version_compare, case sensitivity Status: Open Type: Bug Package: Unknown/Other Function Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 5.3.14 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: >Is there a page in the documentation that describes what's a >"PHP-standardized" version number? The description block gives a fairly precise explanation for how version numbers are compared: after a couple character replacements, numeric parts are compared as numbers and non-numeric parts (eg, "alpha" and "rc") are compared according to a hierarchy. >hmm, you can strtolower before compare, I'd prefer this to be a doc problem.. The operator parameter says "This parameter is case-sensitive, so values should be lowercase". Maybe move that somewhere more obvious, like the description or a note?
