 Operating System: Win32, FreeBSD
 PHP Version:      4.2.1
 New Comment:

it was really an user error, sorry.
i found than "++" operator doesn't make type conversion from boolean to
int, and if variable is boolean and equals TRUE than after ++ it
remains as TRUE, so

$a = TRUE; echo ($a++).$a;

produces output "11"
this behavior of increment operator was unexpected to me and i suppose
that it can be the same to others, so i wrote an user note at "type
juggling" part at online documentation

Not known and most likely user error. Please provide a reproducing
script.

After installing PHP 4.2.1 in some time I noticed a strange bug:
at some situation increment operation (++) didn't work!
I failed to write a simple code to reproduce that bug (it occurs
regular at the same situation in nested functions of a rather big
project), but in short - 
when trying to increment by ++ operation a function parameter, which
was setted to 1 as a default parameter value of upper function (which
called that function), incrementation does NOT happen.
and such code as

echo $newteamid;
$newteamid++;
echo $newteamid;
$a = $newteamid;
echo $a;
$a++;
echo $a;

produces an output: "1111"
but if I use " += 1" instead of "++" all works ok (and I was to make so
at my project)

as I mentioned I tried to reproduce that bug at simple code, but it
works ok in a short program with the same variables values.  
and the same occurs at PHP 4.2.3.

if that bug is not known I can try to write an example for this (dont
wanna waste a time if it's well-known) but please confirm that
