Re: <?= was born when?

Toby, where at in manual? Have looked around : http://www.php.net/manual/language.basic-syntax.php Here it states : "Note: Support for ASP-style tags was added in 3.0.4." Were they added at same time? Is it considered an "ASP-style tag" ? Richard eludes to this fact. Also, it's not here : http://www.php.net/manual/function.echo.php Nor is it around short tags info (correct, they are not the same but they do have relations in that if short tags are off, this feature dies too ... ) Agreed, changelog would appreciate such a mention. Also, a mention in "basic syntax" too. philip p.s. I will never use <?= , just curious when it was came about. Seems more and more people are using them though ...
