note 94615 added to control-structures.alternative-syntax

Mixing alternative syntax with regular syntax within if statements will fail when a nested if statement occurs right before the "else:". This happens because the "} else" confuses the engine and flows with the nested if. Adding any line of code to separate the brace and else will prevent the problem from occurring, but you should avoid mixing the syntax instead. <?php if(true): if(true) { // actions } else: // actions endif; ?> ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 207.210.5.78 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/control-structures.alternative-syntax.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/94615 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94615/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94615/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94615/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94615/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94615/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94615/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94615 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/94615 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
