T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING etc wierdness

[cistate]

After upgrading to php 4.2.2 loads of my scripts give me T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING , T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE etc errors all over the place.

I've seen posts saying that there are probably things missing like colons. However if I hit refresh on my browser the page mostly always loads. Why is this? If it was a missing colon or something shouldn't page remain broken till I changed the script?

Is there a setting in my php.ini that can stop these errors appearing?

Hope someone can help! 😕

I would also tend to say that this was caused by a syntax error in the code but I agree that a refresh would not normally clear that up.

Perhaps it relates to the default php options, have a look at the php.net pages for what has changed between your previous version and the 4.2.2 one you have installed, the most obvious one would be register_globals if the previous version was lower than 4.2.0
