Description:
------------
---
From manual page: https://php.net/function.phpinfo
---
Actually using PHP 7.4.11

Calling phpinfo function results in function apparently inserting its own /BODY & /HTML tags at function processing end.

These tags show up in "view source" of a served web page, see:

phpinfo() outputs a complete webpage. Even includes a doctype.

But go ahead and add your own markup if you want. It shouldn't matter. Browsers will find a way to handle it.

In the past, on previous servers, my markup seemed to override phpinfo function markup -

have just migrated to new server environment, and it no longer works as in the past.

When phpinfo function is embedded in a larger user generated script, it shouldn't be inserting /body & /html tags at end of its processing,

common sense dictates in these situations, there is more user code to follow.

phpinfo function should just wrap its output in a <div></div> wrapper and let the user build their respective page around it.
