Every variable, uninitiated or == "", returns true when compared with 00, 08 or 09. 

Standard compilation + gd2 library. phpver 4.3.3, bug tested on both WinXP using apache and Unix using apache. On WinXP: no changes to php.ini-dist than different includepath.

Allthough this should not show, it shows
Allthough this should not show, it shows
Allthough this should not show, it shows

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

octal numbers, manual... figure it out.

Can't find any general information about them octal numbers, maybe someone could post some info about this here?

I still see this as a bug, since my script doesn't act the expected way because of it. I am using it in a <select>:
<option value=01 <?if ($form_hour == 01) echo "selected";?>>01
<option value=01 <?if ($form_hour == 02) echo "selected";?>>02 etc
<option value=01 <?if ($form_hour == 08) echo "selected";?>>08

And when $form_hour is == to 02 or anything under 09, the selected <option> is always 09. Irritating, and a bug, in my eyes

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.

Keep this bogus, it's not a bug.
