Operating system: Linux video 2.4.18-bf2.4 #1 Son
PHP version: 4.3.4
PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Bug description: docs for substr("", 0, 0) is not clear
Description:
------------
The real behaviour is different from the one which is described in the
docs.
The docs says: "If string is less than start characters long, FALSE will
be returned." In the case of the parameters described below, the string
"abc" is not less than 3 characters long so it should NOT give back FALSE,
but it gives.
Reproduce code:
---------------
var_dump( substr( "abc", 3, 0 ) );
Expected result:
----------------
string(0) ""
Actual result:
--------------
bool(false)
