Agreed. Such an "abomination" should not be in Moodle core code but the (anonymous) person who deleted it doesn't appreciate the point. This comment was added to help those who are having problems with code which is '''not''' part of Moodle core, e.g some of the third party blocks which are mentioned frequently in forums. There is no reason, IMHO, why they would not turn to this FAQ for help. - Ken Wilson 25 July 06

Revision as of 15:53, 25 July 2006

I just added a bunch of questions/answers to the generic FAQ page, and then looked at this to see how it was done (backwards, I know). Clicking on the item jumps you down to the question... but should we add a link to jump back to the top? -- D.I. 29jan06


Someone said, under : My pages show fatal errors such as : Parse error, call to undefined function: get_string()

"You may also be running a php script which uses short open tags, e.g. instead of <?PHP ?> it uses <? ?>. Either replace short tags with conventional ones, or set this line in php.ini:

" short_open_tag = On"

However, this should never be necessary with Moodle code. If you find any short tags anywhere, file a bug in the bug tracker against the affected code. There are currenly none of these abominations anywhere in the Moodle core code.
