That is, the following code with one whitespace in between will be tokenized into two tokens, a start tag and a closing tag: <?php ?> While with two whitespaces in between will be tokenized into three tokens, an opening tag including one space character, a whitespace token with one space character and a closing tag: <?php ?> I hope the whitespace doesn't get lost when I submit this ;-) Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $source = "<?php ?>"; $tokens = token_get_all($source); if($tokens[1][0] == T_WHITESPACE) { print "Whitespace found\n"; } else { print "Whitespace not found\n"; } ?> Expected result: ---------------- Whitespace found Actual result: -------------- Whitespace not found ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=33081&edit=1
