ID: 54936 Updated by: johan...@php.net Reported by: giorgio dot liscio at email dot it Summary: alternative syntax for <?php ?> -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Unknown/Other Function Operating System: any PHP Version: 5.3.6 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Most editors are aware of the PHP syntax. Your propsed syntax won't work out as there is an conflict with statements like $a[$b[23]]. You can parse PHP anyways using an XML parset. In your example you'd at least have to write $item>getUrl();. You can write the code in a more "compatible" way. (echo '<a href="'.$item ....)
