#10311 [Com]: parse error generated for comment

ID: 10311 Comment by: pussy-wet962 at hotmail dot com Reported By: slyder at earendel dot org Status: Bogus Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: Solaris 5.7 PHP Version: 4.0.4pl1 New Comment: <a href=http://jpink-buthblowjob-t.da.ru>pussy wet</a> Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-04-12 16:15:30] cnewbill@php.net This is expected behavior. Not a bug. The part of the expression that is causing the problem is ?>. Try just having // ?>, it will do the same thing. PHP interprets this as the end of the code block. An example of why this is so: <?php print $value; // print value ?> -Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-04-12 15:50:12] slyder at earendel dot org //$line = preg_replace("/<?[ _0-9A-Za-z\$\?\&\"\=;]+QBUYURLQ[ _0-9A-Za-z\$\?\&\"\=;]+?>/", $buyurl, $line); ok pretend thats all one line. the problem is that when using c++ style comments, I get a parse error @ line [length of file + 1]. using c style comments makes it go away. the point of the code it was to replace the php part of a line that contained QBUYURLQ in it w/ just the url. it's no longer needed, but took a while to figure out that a comment was generating a parse error :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=10311&edit=1
