Guys, Jay asked a serious question (I think). Anyways, let's take this one
step further to something that I've really been wondering about.
(.. long bunch of HTML ..)
Jay asked <?=$Question?>, then Tom said <? echo $Answer; ?>. <?php
print 'Meanwhile a lot of others read it including '.$Strangers[0].',
'.$Strangers[2].', '.$Strangers[3].' and '.$Strangers[4].'."\n";
echo "After a short while, among others, $Kirk[firstname] {$Kirk[lastname]}
also said his things.";
?>
Point is, which of the inline printing style is preferred by you guyes. I
tend to use <?=$Var?> a lot, since it reads easier but get into struggles
with myself when I do that multiple times in a row.
