[TriLUG] PHP parsing problem

[Joseph Tate]

You've got short tags disabled on the new site.  Change the PHP script 
to read <?PHP echo "blah"?> and it'll work.  Make sure that none of your 
PHP files has <?, <% or <?= tags.  Only <?PHP or <?php tags will be 
accepted as valid PHP tags.  If you have access to the php.ini file you 
can change this behavior, but it's not recommended as XML files will be 
parsed as PHP if you turn short tags on.
