Talk:PHP Programming/Functions

I added a short section in the "How to Call a Function" section. I'm a novice at php, and I wasted half an hour of my life over the expression "$result = @mysql_query" because nobody ever bothered to tell me that this would call the function. Feel free to add to or correct my edit.

It seems to me that this page is quite a bit more advanced than the book's preceding pages. Should this page be "dumbed down" or should the others be "smarted up" to make the book more consistent? Meatballhat (talk) 15:23, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

Strange syntax

I run into problems with the line function positif ($x + $y;) { … } positif = $x + $y;, as the browsers (both Google Chrome & the Microsoft Internet Explorer) do not "understand" it.--Sae1962 (discuss • contribs) 10:32, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
