Hi, Does PHP4 no longer allow to escape from HTML within an HTML tag? This obviously would be stricter where SGML/XML is concerned, but should be listed under 'incompatibilities' on php.net/version4/ as it is a widely used, if undocumented, feature of php3. Example: Code line and results <A HREF="<? echo $SCRIPT_NAME ?>">go</A> PHP3: <A HREF="/mypage.php">go</A> PHP4: <A HREF="">go</A> So I would now have to write <? echo '<A HREF="' . $SCRIPT_NAME . '">go</A>' ?> that right? Or is there some configuration option by which I can tell the parser to disable adherence to SGML?
