Re: dropping asp_tags in HEAD

I really can't see a reason to mantain ASP tags. Ok, short tags is good because of <?=$something?>, but it doesn't behavior well with XML documents. So, if your intention is to change short tags to ASP tag in a near future, ok. ASP tags does not mix XML documents. Otherwise, ASP tags is the most useless thing I've ever heard in PHP sphere. I really don't know why wasn't it dropped in PHP5. That's what I think... IMHO. []s, On 4/13/07, Tijnema ! <tijnema@gmail.com> wrote:

I don't see why you are all against dropping the ASP tags. I see people using ASP & PHP in one script, what would that do? If ASP runs first then there isn't a problem, but if PHP runs first, it would execute the ASP code.

There are actually people running both PHP and ASP in series to generate HTML? If they are, they can turn ASP tags *OFF* in php.ini And they certainly aren't going to be distributing that setup outside their own little world... I've seen such code on the net some time ago... But should you distribute PHP code with ASP tags? That's not good either i think. So there's no use of the ASP tags, and they can only interfere with ASP.
