Thanks guys for the replies so far, however, if it were a simple search and replace I wouldn't have to ask ;-) The trick is that "<?=" is valid and legal and I want to keep those. I only want to change if they are specifically "<?" Maybe there is some regex guru out there that knows the magic incantation. Related, for extra credit it drives me bonkers to see this: Hello <?= $username; ?> Note the end semicolon on the variable. I'd want to strip all those off too, but that is also not a trivial task if you think about it as it can only be removed if proceeded with <?=
