#28381 [NEW]: <?= $variable ?> eats up a newline if it follows ?>

From: mikemc-phpbug2 at contactdesigns dot com Operating system: Linux 2.4.20-28.9smp PHP version: 4.3.6 PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: <?= $variable ?> eats up a newline if it follows ?> Description: ------------ This isn't a major bug, but I would think it should be classified as a bug just so that it is on the radar screen. For those of us too lazy to write <?php echo $variable ?> and instead prefer <?= $variable ?>, if a newline immediately follows the "?>" then PHP eats the new line :-( Reproduce code: --------------- vi test.php (then insert following code and :wq Enter) <?= $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ?> I should be on a new line - but I am not! [shellprompt]# php test.php testing.phpI should be on a new line - but I am not! Expected result: ---------------- testing.php I should be on a new line - but I am not!
