PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem
Bug description: comment fails nested if, resulting in unexpected $end error
Description:
------------
Sometimes I get a "parse error, unexpected $end at [last line of my
script]"
I found when I add an extra "}" to my script (for wich there is not a
starting "{", I counted thorough!) it works!
So I cut my script down to the point I had a nested-if left and found that
adding a comment results in the error! Delete the comment and the script
works as expected!
This plagued me also with 4.3.6 and was the reason for me to upgrade, but
that didn't help. Both executables came from the distributed zip's.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?PHP
# File to point some strange PHP behaviour....
$a = 10;
$b = 100;
$c = true;
$d = false;
if ($d) {
$test = true;
}else{
if ($c) {
echo "A<BR>\n";
$e = $a;
} else {
echo "B<BR>\n";
$e = $b; # wreck it with this comment!
}
}
?>
<HTML><BODY>Error Test</BODY></HTML>
Expected result:
----------------
A
Error Test
Actual result:
--------------
Parse error: parse error, unexpected $end in E:\NoestNet\.....\error.php
on line 16
