PHP is currently like learning another language. For example, to output some text onto a webpage, PHP uses this code: <?php echo "Hello World"; ?> Now for a person who doesn't know PHP, they are wondering what "echo" means. So to make this PHP code more like the English language we could use the word "display" so the code would look like this: <?php display "Hello World"; ?> So any person who has never seen PHP code before would know it means to display the text 'hello world'. Another example is the "if" condition which means the code to be executed if condition is true. Instead of using "if", why not use the word "true". So all of the PHP code should get an overhaul and make it more like the English language. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46983&edit=1
