Description: Parse error with ($i%2) ? echo '':echo''

Ok thanks. "echo" is not a function like "include".
(include is a language construct, right?)
Then I expect following should not work.

($some_var) ? include('ture.inc') : include('false.inc');

but, it works for some reason..... (or include() is a function?)
Not a big deal though.

Regards,

echo is a statement, not a function, thus cannot be used in
an expression. You are right to use print.

Miner parser bug.
PHP4.0.4pl1 on my Linux (PHP is running as Apache 1.3.17 module) gives parse error 
with following code. 

<tr class=<?php ($i % 2) ? echo('even') : echo('odd') ?>>

This one works as expected
<tr class=<?php ($i % 2) ? print('even') : print('odd') ?>>

Hope this helps.
