RE: [PHP] Re: unexpected T_SL

Hiya, There are two reasons that I can pick up that you may be experiencing this area: 1) You are not using PHP4 or later 2) you are using windoze and..... "Probably the nastiest gotcha is that there may also not be a carriage return (\r) at the end of the line, only a form feed, AKA newline (\n). Since Microsoft Windows uses the sequence \r\n as a line terminator, your heredoc may not work if you write your script in a Windows editor. However, most programming editors provide a way to save your files with a UNIX line terminator." (http://www.php.net/manual/sv/printwn/language.types.string.php#language.typ es.string.syntax.heredoc) It doesnt matter whether you use EOD or EOT or any other (naming convention compliant) identifier. I hope this helps, Todd. > -----Original Message----- > From: Voisine [mailto:voisine@hotmail.com] > Sent: Tuesday, 3 September 2002 3:10 AM > To: php-general@lists.php.net > Subject: [PHP] Re: unexpected T_SL > > > Your lucky :) because I'm using the same version and I have this > parse error. > > Erwin wrote: > > > Voisine wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > > > What is wrong witht his code?
