RE: [PHP] Print vs. Echo

From www.php.net/print : The print() function returns a boolean indicating the status of the call. If the write was successful, print() returns 1. If not, it returns 0. This can be used to detect when the client has closed the connection, and appropriate measures taken. The builtin echo does not provide this same service. This may be handy for you, though there's probably a lot more to it. HTH Jon -----Original Message----- From: Karl J. Stubsjoen [mailto:karlflips@kstub.com] Sent: 18 January 2001 17:02 To: PHP Mailing List Subject: [PHP] Print vs. Echo What is the basic difference between print and echo? As I am understanding it, Echo allows you to define a multi-line area to output text without having to repeat quoting for each line but then what is the advantage of print?
