In php, is 0 treated as empty?

by

http://php.net/empty

The following things are considered to be empty:

  • “” (an empty string)
  • 0 (0 as an integer)
  • 0.0 (0 as a float)
  • “0” (0 as a string)
  • NULL
  • FALSE
  • array() (an empty array)
  • var $var; (a variable declared, but without a value in a class)

Note that this is exactly the same list as for a coercion to Boolean false. empty is simply !isset($var) || !$var. Try isset instead.
