The Zend Framework team has just adopted a standard that they are not to be used within the framework codebase itself, for the reasons stated in the rest of the quoted reference. Thus, within their standard, the closing tag is never permitted. :-) Andrew -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
