Vivid Lust Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Ive seen this php "placeholder" being used when users are allowed to edit something and the "placeholder" translates as a php code similar to: <% X %> I doubt ive explained well enough because me, myself has no idea what this is but would like to use it on my website. Could someone point me in the right direction on what it is so i can search more efficiently for some tutorials???
