$result=mysql_query("SELECT id, cdate FROM newspaper WHERE path='".substr($a, strrpos($a, "/")+1, strlen($a))."'") or die (mysql_error());
$rec=mysql_fetch_array($result);


$e=pow(2, $rec[id]); //Warning!


it's looks like what pow() function can't convert $rec[id] variable from string to integer automatically.
Using 

$rec[id]=stettype($rec[id], "int");

helps

PHP automagically tries to convert the passed data to a number representation.

Please paste the exact values you are using to call this pow()

I have the same problem, but on windows xp.
The values are being selected back from mysql via ADODB. The values being used (in variables) are 2 and 0 eg pow($value1,$value2) where value1 = 2 and value2 = 0

Further to my last post, here is the code in question:

function NUM_HOLDS($level_hull)
{
  global $level_factor;
  return round(pow($level_factor, $level_hull) * 100);
}

as stated in the previous post, $level_factor = 2 and $level_hull = 0;

It also occurs on this line:

$shipspeed = pow($level_factor, $playerinfo[engines]);

Could it be because in my case, I am using an associative array as the second value?
