Not to mention the first makes your code shorter. Not to argue, bira, but I always use if ($whatever): instead of if ($whatever) { because I am forever forgetting to close the curly braces. So maybe I'm just lazy but I prefer to not use the braces.

Well, you do have to enclose it in brackets when an if block contains multiple statements...

offtopic:

I don't get why many people code like this:

Code:

if($this) {
  doThis();
  doThat();
  if($that) {
    bla()
  }
}
else {
  doThose();
  doThese();
}

This way you easily forget those brackets to close, especially with nesting if's and else's...

It's far better to code like this:

Code:

if($this)
{	doThis();
  	doThat();
	if($that)
	{	bla();
	}
}
else
{	doThose();
  	doThese();
}

When I go to the vb-code I often can't see what belongs to where...
