Status: Bogus
Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem
Operating System: WinNT 4, IRIX64 vega 6.5 07091
PHP Version: 4.1.2
New Comment:
Thank you for looking into this, and I did miss this in the manual.
However it was working fine for a long time with the previous version.
After some thought I realized that my original note was incorrect in a
minor but significant way...the file had the ASP-style tags commented
out ("%>"). I changed that to the "?>" tags and of course saw the same
"problem." So perhaps 4.0.6 stopped at all tags except the ASP-style
tags. In any case it sounds like it is a bogus report for 4.1.2,
sorry.

This is not a bug, see the manual:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.basic-syntax.comments.php
it says:
The "one-line" comment styles actually only comment to the end of the
line or the current block of PHP code, whichever comes first.
and ?> is the end of a php block, so it drops out of PHP mode there and
continues in HTML mode.
AFAIK this also worked like this in 4.0.6 (and always in 4.x).

I have a few PHP files that have a common header and footer which I
pull in using an include(). After our web host upgraded from 4.0.6 to
4.1.2 I realized that include() was not working properly.
My included file had a section with PHP tags that was commented out,
like:
//<?php
//echo "hello";
//?>
echo "hello2";
4.0.6 would ignore these, but 4.1.2 ignores that there is a comment
marker, and ends the PHP interpreter in the comment line, sending the
'echo "hello2";' and remaining code as TEXT to the browser. I am not
sure if this qualifies as a bug but is definitely different that the
behavior of 4.0.6 which ignored all commented lines.
I have duplicated this on a Windows NT 4 server also.
