Php Error Where Php Is Fine

[carbontwelve]

<actinic:block PHP='true'>echo str_replace("£","&pound;",sprintf('<actinic:variable name="SecondCurrencyFormat" />', '<actinic:variable name="TaxExclusivePrice" />', '<actinic:variable name="TaxExclusivePriceAlt" />'));</actinic:block>

There is NOUT wrong with this php code, it even renders correctly on the page, however actinic keeps saying there is a PHP parse error, there isn't.

is this just one more example of actinic being incompetent or am I really missing something here?

Are you only seeing this in Design mode? If so, you are missing something. Actinic adds extra code to the expanded variables while in the Design Preview and this may be breaking things.

Try adding selectable="false" inside each variable used.

If my post above doesn't help, you'll have to tell us exactly where you're putting the code.

I tried using it in a Product Layout like this:

<actinic:block type="PriceList">
<actinic:block PHP='true'>echo str_replace("£","&pound;",sprintf('<actinic:variable name="SecondCurrencyFormat" />', '<actinic:variable name="TaxExclusivePrice" />', '<actinic:variable name="TaxExclusivePriceAlt" />'));</actinic:block>
</actinic:block>

and it worked fine as-is.

i had a similar issue with some code and it was the omision of the selectable="false"
