From: alan at nuionline dot com Operating system: All PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: Short Tags Replacement
Description: ------------ Based on the frequent discussion on short tags and their benefits and problems, I would like to propose that a new tag set be added that is equivalent to short tags and that can be utilized on any server, regardless of configuration. My reasoning lies in the fact that it occurs too frequently that a developer needs to output a single variable while not in a set of php processing instructions, and currently the only choices are to use a syntax that is not universally support or to type much more than should be necessary for such a simple task. My initial recommendation would be to simply use a mix between the two syntaxes, something like <?php =$foo?>. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27448&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27448&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27448&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27448&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27448&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27448&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27448&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27448&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27448&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27448&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27448&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27448&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27448&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27448&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27448&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27448&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27448&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=27448&r=float
