Is the default value of $this->input->post() zero?

Hi,

The form value $this->input->post('title') is empty

But when I insert into the table, the value is 0?

Why?

Check in your table whether you forgot to define your data type... whether its int in your table structure except varchar or text ??

The data type is varchar.

Im pretty sure that it returns FALSE if that post element doesn't exist. Which would display as 0.

Correct. It is boolean FALSE, but when cast to a string, it is 0

Yeah, I know now. Thanks
