note 17025 added to function.print

<p>One think I just spotted. Do not use print to output from functions if you want to embed the result of the function within a string.<br> For example:</p>function displayHW() { print "Hello World"; } $strMessage = "My first programming tutorial was ".displayHW().", was yours?"; print $strMessage; <p>The output from this code is as follows:<br> "Hello WorldMy first programming tutorial was, was yours?"<br> You need to return "Hello World" and not print it for the desired result.</p>function displayHW() { return "Hello World"; } $strMessage = "My first programming tutorial was ".displayHW().", was yours?"; print $strMessage; <p>This will output:<br> "My first programming tutorial was Hello World, was yours?"<br><br>Which is correct. It's simple to see what the problem is but it's just as simple to make this mistake as I had.<br> I was using functions to dynamically produce Select boxes on forms, except they were being output in the wrong place.</p> -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.print.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+17025 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+17025 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+17025
