[Phpwiki-talk] Bug in BlockParser.php: indented lines starting with a 0 (zero)

[Carsten K. <car...@us...>]

Hi All,
I'm forwarding this bug for discussion here on the list, I didn't see a  
copy of this thread here yet.

A similar problem was fixed in the past about a year ago or so, but I  
can't find it in the ChangeLog yet.

Does anyone remember this bug or how it was fixed? I'm betting the fix  
will be similar here.

It had something to do with the compared content/value of a string vs.  
an integer:


"0" == true vs. 0 != true


Unfortunately that's all I remember.

Thanks,
Carsten

Workaround:

Yes those indented zeros seem to be what is uncovering this bug in the  
BlockParser. Change the 0s to Ohs and the problem is gone. Probably  
what you want anyway for this page is to enclose the ascii-art diagram  
in <pre></pre> or <verbatim></verbatim>, the problem also goes away  
that way.
