I'm getting confused here... Earlier this year I asked about omitting
the closing "?>" and then I was discouraged from doing that. [0]
Now reading this I again had a look at the manual and a quick google,
and it seems that in the old versions of the manual it indeed says that
"?>" is optional, but current version says nothing about omitting it.
So if I start leaving out those, will my PHP scripts still work fine 2010?
cheers,
