ID: 18438 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: adamhooper@videotron.ca -Status: Duplicate +Status: Closed Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: Windows 2000 PHP Version: 4.2.1 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-19 13:55:02] goba@php.net This is a dupe of http://bugs.php.net/16739 => closing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-19 11:51:22] adamhooper@videotron.ca http://php.net/echo says: "It is not possible to use echo() in a variable function context, but you can use print() instead." This isn't true, as I found with a simple script. And if it were, http://www.php.net/manual/en/functions.variable-functions.php says it isn't so there's a bug there instead. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=18438&edit=1
