Thank you for the explanation, that makes a lot of sense now that you mention it. Sorry for wasting your time. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-05-07 10:38:39] matt...@php.net 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 eval() doesn't return anything but NULL unless a return statement is used in the eval'd code (wouldn't work in this case with inline HTML anyway, which gets echo'd immediately). You'd need to 1) echo "<pre>"; before the eval() call, 2) use eval('return "testing 123, a string, not HTML...";'), or 3) use output buffering, etc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-05-07 10:22:38] skds1433 at hotmail dot com Changed category, from 'Output Control'. Not really sure what this applies to. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-05-07 10:13:29] skds1433 at hotmail dot com Description: ------------ For debugging purposes of a template system, I am trying to wrap the output of an eval inside pre HTML tags.
