[PHP] Re: Stupid newbie question = Why don't I need a ; after this line?
Thanks guys. Duhhh. I was taught to always put ;'s and any dev software that writes it's own code does the same. I also remember adding them because I was getting error's at some point, perhaps PHP3. Is it considered better practice to use them? Otherwise I've been wasting keystrokes. I only noticed this when I was going over some code.

Can anyone tell me why I do not get any errors with ( no ; after _id'] ) ?php echo $row_otherlawyer['lawyer_id']? ?php echo NO ERROR;? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Re: Stupid newbie question = Why don't I need a ; after this line?
I always use them ... but it's mainly 'cause if I ever need to expand the
code, I won't have to remember to add them ... it's for the same reason I
always use the braces '{ ... }' even though the short form would work just
as well in many cases ...
I tend to expand my code alot with time (as I make it more advanced), and
recycle it across multiple projects ... it's simply easier if all the
thingies are there already, as it produces far less errors when copy/pasting
from file to file

Actually, there is a unix-like fork() function in an extension. exec() will execute another process, but it isn't really a fork(). Look at the pcntl extension and check out pcntl_fork(). I've been working with it for a few days and it works pretty well. It's still marked EXPERIMENTAL, so don't rely too much on it. I have no idea as to its stability. And it's probably only truly useful for command line php. (As for the funkyness, kill zombies with pcntl_waitpid().)
