Hi,

Uhm... Let's take the below quickly:

Function DoSomething($Blah) {
$Blah = (int) $Blah;
return $Blah
}

$Blah, cannot be larger than 2147483647, and sometimes, I get negative
integers back from the above function.

This is with PHP 4.4.0 on FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE. Can anyone else perhaps
confirm this, and if it is indeed true, is this a bug, or a limitation
somewhere on PHP? Any other ways to confirm that *large* numbers, are
indeed integers? I'm working with numbers in the form of yyyymmddsss
(20051025001 for today for example)

Thanks,
Chris.
