Re: [PLUG] Help with Apache PHP

whoops, minor mistake, <% is sometimes called the ASP tag, not <?.  my mistake.

I downloaded the PHP source and obtained the default, untainted php.ini file.  The following is a snippet:

; Allow the <? tag.  Otherwise, only <?php and <script> tags are recognized.

short_open_tag = On

By default, 'short open' tag (sometimes referred to as an ASP tag) is on.  Perhaps this should be checked?  At any rate, I think it might be a good idea to open the php code with <?php just to test.

Actually, I could be wrong, I don't have a default php.ini file handy.  I think <? ?> does NOT work by default, and you have to change a setting in php.ini to get it to work.  <?php ?> will always work.

definitely works, granted it only saves 3 characters, it's nice
to use if you're going to stop php and use strictly html, and then
resume php. for standards.
