   In php, you can set conditions for when to do something. For instance, is_search() in Wordpress will be true anytime the page being displayed is a search page. To execute code when it is true you use brackets {}. These brackets can cover multiple lines and you can put normal ol' html in between if you like. For instance:

   <?php is_search() { ?>

   <!-- notice no closing bracket -->
You're currently looking at a search page.

   <?php } ?>

   So all that inside those will only display when those conditions are true. If you're interested (which I doubt, since that seemed just an idle question) there's more info in the Codex.

   And that's where lonely brackets come from.
