Hey, it seems to be recognied by is_int() as integer. I have following
code:
[php]
if ($HTTP_GET_VARS) // if some GET variables were passed on,...
{
switch ($HTTP_GET_VARS['action'])// recognize the get-var 'action'
{
case reserve: // it says, 'reserve PINs'
$cardID = $HTTP_GET_VARS['cardID']; // get cardID which was passed by GET as well
if ($cardID=''||is_int($cardID)) // unless,
{
$cardID = intval($cardID.trim());
echo "<b>ERROR, cardID='' or cardID is no integer!</b><br>\n"; //print Error
exit(0); //and leave
}
echo "reserve<br>\n"; // Variables were okay, so go ahead with the reserving
/**************** [reserve SKU] ****************/
$inputdata = '<xs:request xmlns:xs=\'urn:pinXpressSchema\' version=\'1.5\' langCode=\'en\'>'.$n.'
<DEALERinfo aspName="'.$aspName.'"
dealerName="'.$dealerName.'"
posName="'.$posName.'"
posPassword="'.$posPassword.'"
userName="'.$userName.'"
userPassword="'.$userPassword.'"/>
<reservePINs>
<getPIN cardID="'.intval(trim($cardID)).'" quantity="1" />
</reservePINs>
</xs:request>';
/**************** [/reserve SKU] ***************/
break;
[/php]

it doesn't work that way but if I replace ['.intval(trim($cardID)).']
with [180] (everything between the []-brakets) it seems to work and
cardID was passed with the URL:
http://localhost/ewi.php?action=reserve&cardID=180
So what the hell is going wrong?
Thank you!
