#37648 [Opn->Bgs]: Unexplained use of closing php tag

ID: 37648 Updated by: colder@php.net Reported By: tokul at users dot sourceforge dot net -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Documentation problem PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: It's already documented: http://php.net/language.basic-syntax.instruction-separation Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-05-31 04:17:32] tokul at users dot sourceforge dot net Description: ------------ Could you update php manual and explain why closing php tag can be omitted? PHP manual talks only about valid tag pairs (http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.basic-syntax.php). The fact that closing tag can be ommitted is found only in some pear bug reports. http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=5263 http://propel.phpdb.org/trac/ticket/116 It would be nice to see documentation chapter, that explains why closing tag can be ommited and confirms that it does not break php parsing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=37648&edit=1
