You can always use type casting if you want to change the built in
behaviour:

.typecasting
hence what you ask for is there already.

Subject: RE: [PHP-WIN] Strange 'if' test bug?
I would think that PHP should make the conversion in the other direction
to avoid losing data. In other words, if a conversion is necessary,
convert to the data type that can handle the greater variety of data.
In this case to strings. It would probably always be to strings though.

$key=0;
$key=="muppet"?TRUE:FALSE;
The reason this last comparison returns true is that since you are
comparing an integer with a string, the strings gets converted to an
integer and since "muppet" does not have any numeric character it gets
converted to 0. In other words as far PHP in concerned you are comparing
0 with 0 which is why the result of comparison is a true statement.
Any thoughts on this?
Thanks

I think PHP converts to whatever type is on the left of the equal sign which
will make a lot of sense to me. I haven't thoroughly tested it.

I tried switching the order, and still the same results. That would
make sense to me to though.

strange question: I'm trying to figure out how to build a dating website?
Anyone have any off the cuff advice for me...
I know next to nothing about PHP, and am desperately trying to teach
myself.

I did a quick check, putting the switching the "muppet" and the 0 and it
did exactly the same thing. Yeah, I thought of that too. Order of
precendence or something, but the quick check I did seemed to show that
it'd convert it to an int no matter what order they were in.

Hi Justin
I'm not sure I appreciate the aggro. I am new to .php and so this is a
learning exercise for me.
THERE IS NO SLASHES in the data being submitted so obviously something is
putting them in.
So again thank you for your help - the stripslashes did work.
Screaming like little children :P
have a look at "magic_quotes_gpc". You will find your answers there,
little padawan. :)
(search the php manual for it, google - whatever you want, you just
can't miss the answer ;)

I would like to be able to communicate over this stream with the

runs for the first time, but each time the user gets the script again
the connection is being re-made. I tried pfsockopen but it seemed to
work the same of fsockopen.
pfsockopen isn't the right way here. There is no way to do this with
php. You would have to write a program, that is running in the
background and keeps the connection open, to which you pass data with php.

Or if you have a library written in C you can use the FFI extension from
PECL. But if you are to write a C library, why not write a PHP extension
directly?
