<?php is the recommended way to start a php script.

It very well might be (even though if we establish that files with extension.php are php scripts - why bother with redundant information). But the realproblem IMHO is the unwarranted change in default behavior - this issomewhat unprofessional if I may say so.

Of course I remember that it comes for free and like it very much anyways:-)

This
open tag is available in all scenarios. <? <% are not always
available, and can cause conflicts when using xml or asp
from the same page.

Yes, this was it. I actually was amazed to find out that Keith'ssuggestion

about putting <?php instead of <? made a whole lot of difference. Then I
started perusing httpd.conf to find out what was missing in the server
config - this is when your emails came very timely.

I find it counterintuitive that the setting is in php.ini, but whatever
works.. ;-)

Thank you all, gentlemen,

regards,
Vadim
