String comparison (case)

[manix]

I have this $str variable which say holds "String" and in my comparison I'm checking if it's content is "string" and it is supposed to return true but it isnt because of the case, how do I compare them without the case being an issue ?

you could just convert both strings to lower or upper case on the fly:

$str = 'String';
if(strtolower($str) == 'string') {
   echo "The Same";
} else {
  echo "Not the Same";
}

Or use strcasecmp.
