in php you have a number of constructs that can be used to execute code (or not) based on certain conditions ie is_defined(). Not sure if the comparison with C holds true as C is compiled and PHP is interpreted.

There are reasons why C, etc. has included the ability to comment out lines of code and also provide #if's. But based on your reply, I have to assume that PHP does not current provide such a technique...as I suspected.

In C, etc. one can place #if's around code to determine whether or not the compiler should pay any attention to the code. Is there a similar technique for PHP? I've not seen anything like this before and a brief search hasn't turned up anything either...just thought I would ask to make sure.
