Not necessarily: what if you have
function the_title()
{
echo Title;
}
for example...
In response to Sebastiano:
There would be not much point in using something like PHP if it ignored the if
statements in the code!
What effectively happens in a PHP source file is that all the bits outside of
the ?php ? tags are treated like an echo statement (except that it handles
quotes and stuff nicely)
Your original code:
?php if (the_title('','',FALSE) != 'Home') { ?
h2 class=entry-header?php the_title(); ?/h2
?php } ?
can be read like:
?php
if (the_title('','',FALSE) != 'Home') {
echo 'h2 class=entry-header';
the_title();
echo '/h2';
}
?
You might even find a small (but probably really, really, really small)
performance improvement if you wrote it that way, especially if it was in some
kind of loop.
Note that I prefer to keep HTML separate from PHP as much as possible because it
helps me to read it and helps my editor check my syntax and HTML structure
better...

Re: [PHP] Re: newbie question - php parsing
Thanks, it's now much more clear. I thought that html parts outside
php tags were just dumped to output, no matter of if-else statements
and other conditions. I was *definitely* wrong

Hi all,
A little doubt caught me while I was writing this snippet of code for
a wordpress template:
?php if (the_title('','',FALSE) != 'Home') { ?
h2 class=entry-header?php the_title(); ?/h2
?php } ?
I always thought that php was called only between the ?php ? tags,
and I'm pretty sure that's right, while HTML code was simply wrote in
document as is, without further logic.
Now, I can't figure out how this snippet works: I mean, shouldn't HTML
code be simply put on document, as it is outside php invoke?
Effectively if the title of page is 'Home', the HTML part is totally
skipped.
Is the if construct that does all the magic inside?

?php echo the_title(); ?
?= the_title(); ?
also works.

Re: [PHP] Re: newbie question - php parsing
This is how I'd write this snippet
?php
if ( 'Home' !== ( $title = the_title('','',FALSE)))
{
echo 'h2 class=entry-header',
$title,
'/h2';
}
?

I haven't used worpress in a long time, but the the_title() function might echo the title unless you pass the FALSE parameter, in which case it just returns it. -- Thanks! -Shawn http://www.spidean.com -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
