Bug #15462 Updated: Syntax Errors

ID: 15462 Updated by: ozlink@myoffice.net.au Reported By: ozlink@myoffice.net.au -Status: Feedback +Status: Open Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: win95 PHP Version: 4.1.1 New Comment: Then I will be more specific. PHP does not point specifically to a syntax error. So consequently, 5 of us spend 1/2 an hour looking for it. This costs money. We've done enough to promote PHP... & we can't be more specific than that.

You just copy&pasted the text you write in the first which won't get us any further! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-09 04:53:47] ozlink@myoffice.net.au Nice little functions for web text would go well... Would cut web work in half ( less syntax & errors). As most of the problems in PHP is syntax errors... any chance of a stand-alone syntax checker that points right at the error... point... point... (the internal one stinks) or dump the page as text on the screen with highlights... would save us (1/2 hour search for error * 500)... if PHP gang are listening... keep up the good work... Brian ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-09 04:46:32] mfischer@php.net You're very vague what exactly you concerns are. However, PHP's commandline binary featuers a -l switch which only performs syntax checking of the specified files. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-09 04:44:29] ozlink@myoffice.net.au Nice little functions for web text would go well...
