note 55473 added to language.expressions

This might be pretty obvious to some experienced coders or programmers,but maybe it can save a few minutes to someone. The "if" statement from the following code (in case, if "else" statement is not needed): <?php $foo=true; if(isset($foo)) echo "something"; ?> cannot be converted to something equal, using ternary conditional operator, as it is required to use the "$third" expression or "else" statement equivalent in it. so, the following code: <?=(isset($foo)) ? "something";?> or <?=(isset($foo)) ? "something":;?> returns parse error, no matter if you use echo() or "<?= ?>" syntax. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.expressions.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+55473 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55473&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55473&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55473&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55473&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55473&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55473&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+55473&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
