Testing, it seem the comparing cryptographic hashes of the badges array, serialized as a JSON file, do not provide as much consistency as comparing an array stored in the DB with a recently generated array using the PHP function array_diff_assoc():

Code:
array array_diff_assoc ( array $array1 , array $array2 [, array $... ] )

So, tomorrow I will refine the alert code to also use array_diff_assoc() .

Currently am comparing a generated hash with a stored hash as a cookie. This works well, but it could be even better, so I'm going to do both (I think), compare the hashes and also compare the badge arrays. Still testing ...

Also, I'm going to stop posting in the Underground and move this thread to the main forums.

ARRAY_INTERSECT_ASSOC(3)						 1						  ARRAY_INTERSECT_ASSOC(3)

array_intersect_assoc - Computes the intersection of arrays with additional index check

SYNOPSIS
array array_intersect_assoc (array $array1, array $array2, [array $...]) DESCRIPTION
array_intersect_assoc(3) returns an array containing all the values of $array1 that are present in all the arguments. Note that the keys are used in the comparison unlike in array_intersect(3). PARAMETERS
o $array1 - The array with master values to check. o $array2 - An array to compare values against. o $... - A variable list of arrays to compare. RETURN VALUES
Returns an associative array containing all the values in $array1 that are present in all of the arguments. EXAMPLES
Example #1 array_intersect_assoc(3) example <?php $array1 = array("a" => "green", "b" => "brown", "c" => "blue", "red"); $array2 = array("a" => "green", "b" => "yellow", "blue", "red"); $result_array = array_intersect_assoc($array1, $array2); print_r($result_array); ?> The above example will output: Array ( [a] => green ) In our example you see that only the pair "a" => "green" is present in both arrays and thus is returned. The value "red" is not returned because in $array1 its key is 0 while the key of "red" in $array2 is 1, and the key "b" is not returned because its values are different in each array. The two values from the key => value pairs are considered equal only if (string) $elem1 === (string) $elem2 . In other words a strict type check is executed so the string representation must be the same. SEE ALSO
