Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions. 

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

Read the section on floats again...

and what to do??

i understood :))

$fuzz = 0.000000000001;
if ( abs(0.97+$fuzz - 0.98+$fuzz) > 0.01 ) echo bed1;

works nice :)) 


but what is difference between:
if ( abs(0.97 - 0.98) > 0.01 ) echo bed1; // print bed1
if ( abs(0.07 - 0.08) > 0.01 ) echo bed2; // nothing print

??
