note 105925 added to language.variables.scope

Note that unlike Java and C++, variables declared inside blocks such as loops or if's, will also be recognized and accessible outside of the block, so: <?php for($j=0; $j<3; $j++) { if($j == 1) $a = 4; } echo $a; ?> Would print 4. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 67.185.88.116 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.scope.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/105925 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105925/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105925/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105925/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105925/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105925/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105925/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105925 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/105925 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
