Similar string not matched?

Hi

Can someone please explain why it prints 2?

Code:

---

<?php
if ('EMAIL' == 'EMAIL'){
print "1";
}else{
print "2";
}
?>

---

Thanks

Works fine for me:

Code:

---

C:\Windows\Temp>php -r "if('EMAIL' == 'EMAIL') { print '1';} else {print '2';}"
1
C:\Windows\Temp>

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

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

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

Thanks fro your kind help
