Hi there,
looking around quickly I couldn't find any documentation on the
following change:
$a = "foo"; echo "{$a}";
PHP 4.4.4: {foo}
PHP 5.2.1: {foo}
I didn't check which exact version introduced this change. Some
third-party code used this obscure construct and failed when migrating
from PHP 4 to PHP 5.
Was this intentional and if yes, should it be documented in
http://www.php.net/manual/en/migration5.incompatible.php ?
If this has been discussed before then I apologize.
Cheers,
- Chris

It was changed in 5.1.0-5.1.1 versions.
According to PHP Manual (http://www.php.net/language.types.string) curly
brackets are not escaped with backslash. Escape worked in older PHP
versions. It does not work in 5.1.1+.
