Problem with endif

[eluser]tobbesanda[/eluser]
It's a simple code like:

Code:

<?php if (isset($navigation) && !empty($navigation)); ?>
<ul id="nav">

    &lt;?php foreach ($navigation as $nav); ?&gt;
    
    <li><a href="#">123</a></li>
    
    &lt;?php endforeach;?&gt;
    
</ul>
&lt;?php endif;?&gt;

It works if I use:

Code:

<?php if (isset($navigation) && !empty($navigation)) { ?>
<ul id="nav">

    &lt;?php foreach ($navigation as $nav) { ?&gt;
    
    <li><a href="#">123</a></li>
    
    &lt;?php } ?&gt;
    
</ul>
&lt;?php } ?&gt;

I find it really strange...
