it is not in 3.0.12 for sure. So probably from later (I guess 3.0.15).

4.0, although it actually existed for php 3 a long time ago for a short
while and was then removed.

Toby, where at in manual?  

Have looked around :
http://www.php.net/manual/language.basic-syntax.php

Here it states :

"Note: Support for ASP-style tags was added in 3.0.4."

Were they added at same time?  Is it considered an "ASP-style tag" ?
Richard eludes to this fact.  Also, it's not here :

http://www.php.net/manual/function.echo.php

Nor is it around short tags info (correct, they are not the same but
they do have relations in that if short tags are off, this feature dies
too ... )

Agreed, changelog would appreciate such a mention.  Also, a mention in
"basic syntax" too.

philip

p.s. I will never use ?= , just curious when it was came about.  Seems
more and more people are using them though ...

  Definitely before that -- Not sure when.
 
  It was a long discussion, and some PHP Developers still
 think it was a Bad
  Idea (tm).
 
  *SHOULD* be in the ChangeLogs somewhere...
 
  It mostly keeps the recent ASP converts from whining :-)

Re: [PHP] ?= was born when?

2001-01-11 Thread Alex Black

hi phillip,

I've been teetering back and fourth on that issue with binarycloud:

I _love_ using

?=$hello?
as opposed to the more compatible:

?php echo $hello; ?

the first _feels_ like a key, the latter does not :)

great for html templates.

_alex
