Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-16 04:05:39] camka at email dot ee Description: ------------ "else" statement would be very useful and comfortable when the array_expression in foreach construct is empty. There'd be no need to calculate count(array) every time you need to execute some code in case of empty array. Smarty has such syntax and it really helps. Reproduce code: --------------- $count = count($array); foreach($array as $arr) { ... } if(!$count) { ... } =============================== foreach($array as $arr) { ... } else //may be [foreachelse] or [elseforeach] { ... } ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=27612&edit=1
