    Let say I have something like

    
<?php
//code
?>
<html />
    PHP:
    Is there a way to stop the PHP from running and just output the text. Like:


    
<?php
//code
if ($condition)
exitphp;
?>
<html />
    PHP:

    Then use braces e.g.

    <?php
    //code
    if(!$condition)
    {
    continue running php script
    }
    ?>
    <html />

    do you mean what:
    <? if ($condition) { ?> <html /> <?} else { die();}?>
    in what example if $condition is something wan it will post <html /> else it will stop executing.
    Ore you want to execute html only if not condition, wan:
    <? if ($condition) { die(); }else {?> <html /> <?}?>
    In what example if condition, it will die, and if else it will post <html />.

    Yeah, I know that I can do that but I was wondering if there is another way, without having to put the code in the if structure.

    Possibly. If you used something like: 
    $me = file_get_contents(__FILE__); // __FILE__ is a PHP defined constant
$me = explode('?>', $me); // etc.
echo $me[/* Continue here */];
    PHP:
    Bit of a complicated way I think, but it can be done.

    That doesn't work.

    I also tried return, but it worked just like exit.

    Heh, interesting idea.

    Hey this is nonsense , why do you need that ?
    if you need so separate PHP part from HTML 
    
<?php
//code

include('htmlfile.htm');
?>
    PHP:
    so you call directly htmlfile.htm

    I think return will do what you want if the PHP is in a separate file. I think this is what classic's post is getting at.

    PHP6 might make you happy. :)

    This doesn't really solve my problem. :confused:

    I don't really see how GOTO can fix my problem. :confused:

    I was thinking maybe you'd be able to do something like this:

    
<?php

// stuff here


if ($condition)
  break goto_html; 

// more code here

goto_html: 
?>
<html>
    PHP:
    But I'm really not sure how it will work.

    Wow, goto is actually in PHP 5.3. http://wiki.php.net/doc/todo/undocumented#php_5.3

    Here is how it can be done:

    1) Using conditional statement like stated above (if/switch)
    2) Keep the PHP code in a file, include it:

    
<?php
include('file.php');
?>
HTML
    PHP:
    In file.php, use return to stop executing the file from continuing.

    3) Use a loop (for/while/do) and use continue/break to exit them.

    Peace,

    Why don't you make a function which processes a file whih html , and call it just before exit();
    Ex:
    function myfile($f){
    ob_start();
    include($f);
    $str= ob_get_contents();
    ob_end_clean();
    return $str;
    }

    Now in your php file:
    if ($condition){ echo myfile('somefile.php'); exit(); }

    The variable in php file will not be available in function, unless you set a global $var inside function. Easiest will be to add these variables to $GLOBALS and then call the function.
    regards :)
