Plogger Support Forum - Function empty() does not determine value correctly Thu, 16 Apr 2026 05:34:21 +0000 http://www.plogger.org/forum/ Lussumo Vanilla 1.1.10 Function empty() does not determine value correctly http://www.plogger.org/forum/comments.php?DiscussionID=321&Focus=1628#Comment_1628 http://www.plogger.org/forum/comments.php?DiscussionID=321&Focus=1628#Comment_1628 Thu, 22 Dec 2005 01:30:40 +0000 mortum Function: the_gallery()

Somehow, the function empty() does not determine value of $row["unix_exif_date_taken"] (EXIF_date_taken in MySQL) and therefore $row["unix_date_submitted"] always overrides in:

// The original code
$date_taken = !empty($row["unix_exif_date_taken"]) ? $row["unix_exif_date_taken"] : $row["unix_date_submitted"];

In order to display the date when photo was actually taken, I had to:

// Hack!
$date_taken = $row["unix_exif_date_taken"] ? $row["unix_exif_date_taken"] : $row["unix_date_submitted"];

Or am I doing something wrong?

Thank you :)]]>
