Strange (short)

[play_]

<?php

$text = "# hello world";

$text = explode(' ', $text);

$c = current($text);
echo $c;
?>

 

This returns: "#". so $c is '#'.

 

But if i do this:

if( $c == "#" ) {
echo 'test';
} 

 

it returns nothing. why?

erm.. worked for me

 

<?php

$text = "# hello world";

$text = explode(' ', $text);

$c = current($text);

if( $c == "#" )
{
echo 'test';
} 

?>

Ahh many sorry.

i actually had

 

$text = "

# hello world";

 

so i guess current was a \n?

 

but strange how when echoed, it echoed '#'

[MadTechie]

my test was

 

echo "~$c~"

 

so if a newline appeared i would get

 

~

#~

 

easy mistake to make (been their got all the t-shirts)
