By Jove, he's right! The lack of closing tags is, I believe, a trick to prevent problems with newline characters appearing after the closing tag. PHP has no real problem with the last tag not existing, so it's left out to be safe. I will add this to the tutorial when I get chance. Thanks for pointing it out. | |||
