note 19704 added to language.operators

If this doesn't work: ($val) ? echo('true') : echo('false'); ...you should use this: if($val) { echo('true'); } else { echo('false'); } ...or, better yet, this: echo($val ? 'true' : 'false'); ...because $val, 'true', and 'false' are all expressions, but echo() is not. The "expr?expr:expr" operator is used to select between expressions in the middle of a command. If you need to select between different commands instead, it's probably better to use if() instead. That's what it's there for. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+19704 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+19704 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+19704
