From: Operating system: PHP version: 5.2.17 Package: *General Issues Bug Type: Bug Bug description:mixed classic and new if/else/endif
Description: ------------ --- >From manual page: http://www.php.net/migration.if-endif --- Parser reports an error even the code is correct: <?php if ( 1 == 2 ): echo 'one is the same as two'; if ( 3 == 3) echo 'liars may tell the truth sometimes'; else: //this is line 5 echo 'one is NOT the same as two'; endif; echo '<br>'; ?> Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ':' in /var/www/web4/html/Kunden/shared_tables/app/test.php on line 5 This can be easily hailed by adding a 2nd ';' after the statement in line 4: ... truth sometimes';; It seems that the parser recognizes 'else:' as 2 syntacital tokens 'else' and ':' instead of one. Hint: the real php version is 5.2.6 - I'm an end-user, no idea about packages. Test script: --------------- <?php if ( 1 == 2 ): echo 'one is the same as two'; if ( 3 == 3) echo 'liars may tell the truth sometimes'; else: //this is line 5 echo 'one is NOT the same as two'; endif; echo '<br>'; ?> Expected result: ---------------- one is NOT the same as two Actual result: -------------- Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ':' in /var/www/web4/html/Kunden/shared_tables/app/test.php on line 27 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53730&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=53730&r=mysqlcfg
