Re: String parsing issue in PHP 4.3.10?

Quote: The one-line comment styles actually only comment to the end of the line or the current block of PHP code, whichever comes first. This means that HTML code after // ?> WILL be printed: ?> skips out of the PHP mode and returns to HTML mode, and // cannot influence that. If asp_tags configuration directive is enabled, it behaves the same with // %>. From: http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.basic-syntax.comments.php I remember running into this, also, so don't feel bad about not noticing it. ;) ---John Holmes...
