XHTML and PHP

Andrew, This will work, no doubt about it. But I think I forgot to mention that I am doing a project for someone who has a hosting service that has the short tags property "on" in their php.ini file. They have to have it on for those who don't like writing their php code in the form of <?php ... ?>. I checked it with phpinfo() and confirmed it to be as such. Is there any other way around this without going through the php.ini file?
