problem with range() function:

$test = range(settype($seats[1], 'integer'), settype($seats[2], 'integer'));

First argument equals 1 second equals 25 confirmed by this var_dump:

[1]=> int(1) [2]=> int(25) 

var_dump($test) returns:

array(1) { [0]=> int(1) } 


PHP configure setup:

./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-zlib --with-apache=../$apache --enable-track-vars --with-config-file=$target/conf

Not a bug.

settype() returns true/false.  In your case it returned true in both cases so your range was actually range(1,1) which doesn't make much sense.  If you want to cast arguments use (int)$var inside that call.

I should have read the settype() docs more closely, however, I only added the settype after upgrading to 4.1.1 broke my older code written in 4.0.6 that was using range().  I believe this may have been caused by the addition of support for characters in addition to numbers in 4.1.0 for range().  The numbers were output from preg_match() in the form of back references (third optional paramter to preg_match()) and were strings although they would have passed is_numeric().  Therefore, they ran in older versions of range() just fine.  I should have tested more before submitting a bug report that was a false alarm.  Sorry :-(
