Once you've got a syntax highlightning engine such as net.sf.colorer, for example, reading "strings $like being $this or $that" is easier and faster than 'strings '.$like.'being '.$this.'or '.'$that' and there is more chances to spot a mistake like I did here on coding stage. And since it is also faster to type it makes one of PHP features, what makes coding in PHP differ from JS in a better way. Since none of you provided any links, I still do not see any grounds why to stick with single quotes. Considering PEAR is a central place for a quality code and your desire to ought everyone follow these rules, maybe it is time to prove your words and make a research? http://www.procata.com/blog/archives/2005/03/08/microbenchmarks-of-single-and-double-qouting/

Justin? P.S. Guys, how about to relax CS a bit and make all other "coding practices" OFFTOPIC so the people calm down eventually? Where is this tracker where I could post a report about how I am bugged with those? WBR.techtonik As far as I can see Coding Standards do not say you should use concatenation over inlining, end of the story. Some arguments were given in favor of the former, in the end the developer decides which form to use.
