ID: 30432 Comment by: christian dot reinecke at web dot de Reported by: vivers at one dot net Summary: Add alternate syntax Status: Wont fix Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Feature/Change Request Operating System: All PHP Version: 5.0.2 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Can you explain why you declined that? Because I'm not the only one using the alternative syntax in views/templates, especially for if/elseif/else and some old-school pages that do not have anything like a controller require try/catch statements mixed in HTML, so that syntax would really help. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-10-14 14:42:15] der...@php.net Nope, we won't add more "old-style" alternative syntax like this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-10-14 14:33:16] vivers at one dot net Description: ------------ Can you add alternate syntax for try ... catch? Something like: try : ... catch () : ... endtry; I'm using exceptions on presentation pages and this syntax would make the source much more readable. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=30432&edit=1
