"...the return() statement..."

Return is a statement, not a function or expression. It has to appear
on its own, not as part of some other statement.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not

a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at 
http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

now, I guess that you can't do "..or return.." because return isn't a
function, ok, but, reading the documentation, nothing related to this
sort of thing is ever mentioned in these related articles:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.return.php
http://www.php.net/manual/en/functions.returning-values.php
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.logical.php
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.functions.php

Maybe this thing is explained somewhere in the docs, but it seems a
little awkward to me that it doesn't appear on none of these related
articles. I think this kind of thing does really need to be mentioned
somewhere in these places. If this is not a documentation bug, i don't
know what is.
