Bug #10311: parse error generated for comment

From: slyder@earendel.org Operating system: Solaris 5.7 PHP version: 4.0.4pl1 PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: parse error generated for comment //$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 Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=10311&edit=1
