it's an if/else shortcut.
the part before the '?' is tested. '$i % 2' in your case.
the part after the '?' is returned if the test evals to true. '0' in your
case.
the part after the ':' is returned if the test evels to false. i've never
tried it with nothing after the ':' like in your case. guess it could be the
same as an if without an else.
hope this helps,
mike
