This is a matter of personal preference, but use formatting that is helpful to
determine where you are in your code... and comment yourself... it will avoid
missing } { and other common erors that eat up valuable time tracking down. HTML
cares less about the extra spaces and \n's anyway
<?PHP
while(something){
if(something){
doing something
}else{
doing something else
} #endif
} #endwhile
?>
While generally restrictive in nature, some good ideas for policing your own
code can be found at http://utvikler.start.no/code/php_coding_standard.html
(just one copy I came across). take what you need out of there... once you
stick to a method, your occasions of tracking down loose ends will drop greatly.
