unusual probelm

[desithugg]

okay the problem is sometimes i use the same type of query but it gets the username with a different spelling meaning sometimes all capital sometimes not.So when i check stuff like
[code]
<?
if ($owner != "$me")
{
echo "You do not own this item.";
exit;
}
?>
[/code]
even when the username is same it ives that error is there anyway i can make it non case sensitive

Force both of your variables to lower case with strtolower() and then compare them.

[shocker-z]

it should be

[code]<?
if ($owner !== "$me")
{
echo "You do not own this item.";
exit;
}
?>
[/code]

But if you want to do both as uncase sencitive you could use strlower ot strupper to make both variables either upper or lower

[code]<?
if (strtolower($owner) !== strtolower($me))
{
echo "You do not own this item.";
exit;
}
?>
[/code]
