RE: [PHP] difference between <?php and <?

There isn't any difference, if your php.ini settings allow it (short_tags, I believe), you can use <? instead of <?php -----Original Message----- From: php_guy@ns.visors.com.hk [mailto:php_guy@ns.visors.com.hk] Sent: Sunday, September 09, 2001 2:43 PM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] difference between <?php and <? Hi, I am a newbie at this PHP thing and I have been working from information on the web and from books. I noticed that some start the PHP script with <? and some start with <?php. Actually I have noticed that one of the first PHP script in my book uses both methods interchangeably. Is there a real difference between the two? Or maybe I just haven't noticed something.
