Hi

Can someone please explain why it prints 2?

[CODE]
<?php
if (‘&#65279;EMAIL’ == ‘EMAIL’){
print “1”;
}else{
print “2”;
}
?>
[/CODE]

Thanks

<i>
</i>C:WindowsTemp&gt;php -r "if('EMAIL' == 'EMAIL') { print '1';} else {print '2';}"
1
C:WindowsTemp&gt;

Are you sure that's the exact code you are testing?

@phantom007authorJan 25.2013 — That IS the actual thing, and I posted it here because I could not find any reason why it would not match. I mean both are simple strings. If you copy/paste my above code and try it on ur end, it will not work.

I just wanna know the reason.


Thanks

@NogDogJan 25.2013 — You have some sort of non-printing character right before the "E" of the first "EMAIL" (between the quote and the "E").
