FUNCTION PageMover ($command, $currentSurveyTemplateID, $surveyTrackcer, $debug='BOO') {
    echo "<hr>BEGIN FUNCTION PageMover()<br>" ;
    echo "debug = " . $debug . "<br>";
    echo "END FUNCTION PageMover()<hr>" ;
}

Calling this function without overwriting the $debug parameter will result in this output:

BEGIN FUNCTION PageMover()
debug = 
END FUNCTION PageMover()

In my previous version of PHP (4.2.3), this resulted in setting "debug" to "BOO".

This seems to be a problem only when the function parameter is named "debug". This definitely was not a problem in previous versions of PHP.

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php4-STABLE-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:
 
  http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-STABLE-latest.zip

I can not reproduce this with PHP 4.3.2-RC, using this script:

<?php

function pagemover($foobar, $debug='BOO') {
    echo "debug = " . $debug . "\n";
}
pagemover('foo');

?>

No feedback, and apparently fixed in CVS already.
