Note Submitter: runcz at netparks dot lv ---- 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.
