xgettext, php and javascript

[Alexandre Passant]

Hi all,

I've found something strange while using xgettext with some PHP code.

The code is as follows:

$foo = _("Bar");
echo <<<_END_
  [...]
  <script language="javascript">
  [...]
  </script>
  _END_;
$foo2 = _("Bar2");
[...]

When I use xgettext to extract strings ("xgettext -LPHP -s -o messages.po
header.php"), all strings after the "_END_" block are not extracted.

The problem seems to be related to this output of <script> tag, as it works fine
if I use another tag, or if I echo "<script>" instead of the _END_ block, so
there may be something wrong with language recognition.

Cheers,
Alexandre Passant
