[SOLVED] Why is 1 Not Equal to 1 ??

[phpdolan]

Please point out what you think I may be missing. I've been staring at this for days and can't get it. I've added code to echo what the variables are, included below and that tells me the 2nd part of the following IF is FALSE ?? Yet the output confirms 1 ( the integer values ) does not equal 1, using variables. Sorry about the confusion. I thought 1 = 1.

  ,  and ???

 

if ( $today_date >= 14 AND $work_mon_num == idate ( "m" ) )
{
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
setTimeout ( function()
{
        window.scrollTo ( 0, 270 );
    }, 2000 )
    </script>
<?php
}

echo "work_mo_num is : " . $work_mo_num . ", and is type : ( " . gettype ( $work_mo_num ) . " )<br />";
echo "today_date is : " . $today_date . ", and is type : ( " . gettype ( $work_mo_num ) . " )<br />";
echo ' m for the idate is : ' . idate ( "m" ) . ", and is type : ( " . gettype ( idate ( "m" ) ) . " )<br />";
echo "14 is : " . gettype ( 14 ) . "<br />";
echo '1st half of IF is : ';
($today_date >= 14 ) ? print 'true' : print 'false';
echo '<br />2nd half of IF is : ';
( idate ( "m" ) == $work_mon_num) ? print 'true' : print 'false';
echo "<br />";
( 1 == 1 ) ? print 'true' : print 'false';
echo '<br />Full IF returns : ';
( $today_date >= 14 AND $work_mon_num == idate ( "m" ) ) ? print 'true' : print 'false';

 

Here's the output of the code:

 

work_mo_num is : 1, and is type : ( integer )

today_date is : 26, and is type : ( integer )

m for the idate is : 1, and is type : ( integer )

14 is : integer

1st half of IF is : true

2nd half of IF is : false

Test 1 == 1 : true

Full IF returns : false

 

I'm stumped. Please help.

Try this:

 

print ( 1 == 1 ) ? 'true' : 'false';

 

That should work. I do not think print works as part of the assignment. It would be like saying    $var = print 'true'; which (I believe) is invalid.

you are using $work_mon_num when you should be using $work_mo_num

[phpdolan]

you are using $work_mon_num when you should be using $work_mo_num

 

rhodesa,

 

Thanks. You're a Genius!!! and I'm further embarrassed.
