Hans beat me to it.
Specifically, your syntax declares elementname to be a constant, such as
ELEMENTNUM is in Hans's example:
> define('ELEMENTNUM', 5);
PHP can tolerate your error and continue. But, this is no better practice than
writing broken HTML tables that IE happens to render; it doesn't make them
right. :-)
