| echo() for life. Print is probably still in use thanks, in part, to C and Basic. | ||||||

| hehe, "fprintf" for me there people - partly cus of the support for it on the random platforms I wind up coding on ;-) And also, partly cus I've only ever used echo() on server side scripting - is that bad?  |

| Oh I have to have my code tabbed perfectly, spaces in the right places, comment every closing "}" and have all comments aligned. So I know what you mean about making sure it's all layed out and neat! | ||||||

I'm just learning PHP now (doing my PHP video blog  ), and I've been using echo -- don't know why, actually. Maybe cause that's what I've seen used more often.Anyway, I learned this just the other day: the main difference between print and echo (as I understand it) is that print returns a value of 1, and echo doesn't return any value. So you can use print as part of more complex stuff, but you can't do as much with echo. Here's a page that explains the difference: http://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/view.phtml/aid/1/fid/40 |

| Well Rathmaster, it's not that hard if you think of it as learning another language. It has its own grammer, nouns, adjectives, imperatives etc. Then you use this language to describe what you want, and the computer makes it. Simple. |

| huh? Theres an echo? I thought it depends on what yer using to program. I use printf() and fwrite. | ||||||
