Short Tags and XML

[Jason G.]

I have heard that you cannot use short tags and XML because of the opening
line of an xml document...

<?xml version="1.0"?>

Consider this:

<<?= '?'; ?>xml version="1.0"<? = '?'; ?>>

Problem Solved.

and if your php.ini has short_open_tags =off, and you can't modify it ? (for
example, an administrator very strict who doesn't allow you to modify
anything on the server...). The best way, IMHO, to resolve this problem is
to never use short open tag. Thus, it will always work.
