Re: Newbie needs help! '>' closing PHP Tag

My bad.. Typical am error. I have concurrent dev locations for my documents (one live/one test) since the live side is the only connected to PHP/SQL I have been doing my dev there. Of course I was a) seeing the problem in HomeSite (which will close the tag in its browe window) and b) reading the wrong damn page (the test side). After pulling my hair out for an hour, I have since deleted my test folders and moved them to the live side and learned Homesite will not support PHP tags (until I get in there and mess with it). Thank you for you help though...
