ID: 11439 Updated by: jmoore Reported By: danielc@analysisandsolutions.com Old-Status: Open Status: Closed Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating system: PHP Version: 4.0.5 Assigned To: Comments: fixed in latest cvs. Thanks for your report. Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-06-12 12:30:07] danielc@analysisandsolutions.com **** ISSUE: Comments are visible in the parsed output. But, this is only happening when the script has it's lines separated by two carriage returns then a line feed (CR|CR|LF) (ASCII Ordinals: 13|13|10). If the file has lines broken by one carriage return then a line feed, things run correctly. This report may shed light on bug #11303, entitled "Comment Characters," submitted by another user on 5 June 2001: http://www.php.net/bugs.php?id=11303 Here's how to recreate the problem... **** STEP 1: Point your browser to http://www.analysisandsolutions.com/code/sql/strange.php This is the source code for that page, if you're interested... <?php header("Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1"); ?> <?php echo "<?php"; ?> # Comment at TOP echo "<html><head><title>Strange Behavior</title></head>n"; echo "<body><p>Echo at top</p>n"; <?php echo "?>"; ?> <p>Some HTML in the middle.</p> <?php echo "<?php"; ?> # Comment near bottom. echo "<p>echo near bottom</p>"; <?php echo "?>"; ?> </body></html> **** STEP 2: Save the resulting output to your web server space. Don't change the file name, file extension or the type of file. I was using Netscape to view and save the file. That may or may not be relevant. FYI, here is a sample of the output. Don't use this as the script in the next step. <?php # Comment at TOP echo "<html><head><title>Strange Behavior</title></head>n"; echo "<body><p>Echo at top</p>n"; ?> <p>Some HTML in the middle.</p> <?php # Comment near bottom. echo "<p>echo near bottom</p>"; ?> </body></html> **** STEP 3: Now point your web browser to the copy of strange.php you saved in your web space. Then point browser to it and it results in... # Comment at TOP # Comment near bottom. <html><head><title>Strange Behavior</title></head> <body><p>Echo at top</p> <p>Some HTML in the middle.</p> <p>echo near bottom</p> </body></html> **** NOTE: All of the comments are pushed to the beginning of the program and then displayed. Ouch! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION! Do NOT reply to this email! To reply, use the web interface found at http://bugs.php.net/?id=11439&edit=2
