(REPOST) What"s wrong with this code?

am 11.04.2008 09:05:39 von Ronald Raygun

$cssfile =
(stristr($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT','msie'))?'ie.css':'ff.cs s';
echo
"

This is a test

Hello world!

"
?>

The result in the browser is still:

Hello world! " ?>

- am I missing something?

Yes, you are missing a basic level of skill in HTML and a semi-colon at the
end of your echo statement.

Yes, you miss error and notices reporting.
You suppres errors, so you don't see them on screen.

This is what I get:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected ',', expecting ']' in
/home/compernolle/public_html/user/test.php on line 2

Solution? Make sure you have all errors/notices/etc ON during
development/debugging.

The obvious error is offcourse browser sniffing (and my opera occasional=

some MSIE specific CSS rules (which nowadays for a competent designer wi=

I'd always advise using MSIE conditional comments.

FWIW I would use...

$cssfile =
(stristr($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT','msie'))?'ie.css':'ff.cs s';

This is a test

Hello world!

?>

I think you meant:
$cssfile =
(stristr($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT','msie'))?'ie.css':'ff.cs s';
//close php script here and start html document
?>

This is a test

Hello world!

Compare:

$cssfile =
(stristr($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT','msie'))?'ie.css':'ff.cs s';

$cssfile =
(stristr($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'],'msie'))?'ie.css':'ff.c ss';

Note the new ] that was missing.
