Hi, I have seen some projects where people start with opening tag <?php but they DON'T close it with ?> This is especially the case of CONFIG.php files... 1) What's the reason of that? 2) What if you would not close any 100% PHP files? 
 I second what Robbert and Richard said, actually I'm pretty sure I've read Rasmus himself advocate the practice of leaving out the closing php tag on files that contain no output 
 Before I go and change all of my include files... I just want to make sure if "output" would be considered inside a function that sets session variables, and then simply returns at the end? Once I'm done debugging, I'll have some functions like that hopefully. :) -- Jason Pruim Raoset Inc.
