drewbee Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Everyone, I have been trying to explain to someone how to use the >>> code, but I have not used it in a long time and my syntax is off slightly. What are these called? I have been looking around for the name of it... but obviously searching google for ">>>" doesn't really help to much. These are called ........ blocks... ? echo BLAH>>> my text BLAH; Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/101756-what-is-it-called-when-you-blocks-of-code/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
