  mind-blowing. What the heck /is/ supposed to happen when
 you do this:
 
  $a = 2;
  $a = $a++;
  echo $a;
 
  Seems like any way you slice it the output should be 3. I
 guess what's
 
 ... and, in fact, that /is/ how C behaves. The following code:
 
 int a = 2;
 a = a++;
 printf(a = [%d]\n, a);
 
 Will output a = [3]. At least on Ubuntu 9 using gcc 4.3.3.
 
 So I retract my initial terse reply and apologize for misunderstanding
 your question.
 
 Ben
 
 EXACTLY! :)
 
 God (or diety of your choice) bless you for getting what I'm saying and
 proving that it's not C like either. That just adds credence to my/our
 argument.

Well, Daevid,

I still do appreciate the difference between

$a = 1;
$b = $a++;
// $b should be 1
and

$a = $a++;
$b = $a;
// $b should be 2

unless PHP manages to exhibit some overlay problem  (read: bug) for $a in 
the 2nd case.

True?
joost.

RE: [PHP] Include Files in HTML

 In my readings, I've run across examples showing include files
 being
 called from within the head/head tags, and other examples showing
 
 them called within body/body.  I've always put them in the header
 
 section myself, but I was wondering if one is better than the other,
 or is it just personal preference?
 
 Depends on what you are including. The only tags that can be inside the
 head are base, link, meta, script, style,  and title.
 Everything else is either body or prologue.

Sure enough. What the OP might not have realized:

In the end, what PHP evaluates to, is a stream of html, script, css etc 
text/data, which is sent to the browser. PHP's include( file ) statement 
inserts the content of file here-and-now. You can even put the include 
statement within a for loop in order to include something multiple times... 
In that sense it is more like a /function/ and really different from cpp's 
#include /directive/.

file can contain PHP code, which is evaluated as if it was here-and-now in 
the including PHP file; it can contain text/data, which is appended to the 
text/data stream being produced.

All in all, to PHP the spot of file inclusion is not interesting, as long as 
the resulting PHP code and/or stream data is meaningful.

Now back to you, Bob :-)

Regards,
Joost.

[PHP] survey for graduation thesis

2004-02-27 Thread Joost Wilbrink
Hello Everybody,

I am doing a research in the field of web application developing for my
graduatation thesis for university. I am studying information management at
the university of Tilburg in The Netherlands.

I want to do a survey about some aspects of web application development. I
am basically researching the methods of web application development, like
C#, Java, PHP, .Net, etc. The reseach is focussed towards what the best
developing methods are related to seven quality attributes.

Now I have made an online survey and I want to ask you to be so kind to fill
in this survey for me. It costs you approximately 10 minutes of your time,
and I will certainly help me in my research and to graduate!

You can find this online survey at: http://www.wilbrink.ws/survey/

Thank you all very much
Best regards
Joost Wilbrink
