if..endif syntax<br />
The `alternative' way to write if/elseif/else statements, using if(); elseif(); else; endif; cannot be efficiently implemented without adding a large amount of complexity to the 3.0 parser. Because of this, the syntax has been changed: Example E-5. Migration: old if..endif syntax<br />
<br />
if ($foo);<br />
echo "yep\n";<br />
elseif ($bar);<br />
echo "almost\n";<br />
else;<br />
echo "nope\n";<br />
endif; <br />
<br />
Example E-6. Migration: new if..endif syntax<br />
<br />
if ($foo):<br />
echo "yep\n";<br />
elseif ($bar):<br />
echo "almost\n";<br />
else:<br />
echo "nope\n";<br />
endif; <br />
<br />
Notice that the semicolons have been replaced by colons in all statements but the one terminating the expression (endif). <br />
