thanks for the quick reply. I agree it is good to follow the rules (i mean
standard ;) ), But the thing is if I use some script written by someone
else, i have to rely on his/her choice.
Thanks

There's a setting in php.ini that dictates whether you can use <? ?> or if
you have to use <?php ?>

It's called "short_open_tag"  (

It's usually a good idea to use <?php ?> to maintain portability.  If what
you write gets moved to a system that has short_open_tag turned off (like
your current system it seems) your code won't break.

Subject: [PHP-WIN] What's the difference between <? ?> and <?php ?> ???

Hello.
I just did a 'manual' installation of php on my winxp. A very weird
(maybe)
problem encountered. It doesn't 'recognize' <? ?> tags. but it
recognizes
<?php ?> tags. Clueless. Someone please help me out.
regards
Abhisek
