As i learnt from the manual, i thought that a while() loop could have 2 different sintax: while($something) { do_something(); } while($something): ?> some html goes here <? endwhile; And i tought that the embedded html has to be just embedded html, and that i had to put ?> <? that way... (i finnaly used the { } way) But now, i see that PHP is much more flexible than i tought... <? and ?> just "turn on and off" PHP parsing & executing, something outside <? ?> can be thought as just echoed... <? ?> quotes have nothing to do with loop sintax as they are just ignored... I've really caught the idea of how <? ?> works with loops.
