Surround your expression with parentheses to get your expected behavior. The lexer treats this as a float, not the parser. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-10-15 01:27:04] svavar at kjarrval dot is Description: ------------ The parser thinks that a period after an integer must mean the number is a float, even though the period represents a concatenation of a string. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $time = 2000; echo $time/1000.' seconds'; // doesn't work //echo $time/1000..' seconds'; // works - when not commented out ?> Expected result: ---------------- To see the following output: 2 seconds Actual result: -------------- The parser outputs a syntax error: unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting ',' or ';' ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=49883&edit=1
