    Hi Guys...

    I have a server running php5.2
    I am setting upa new server, running centos 6, which runs php5.3

    I have thousands of php web pages that I will have to transfer to the new server.

    This is my problem:

    All my php pages start with <? and not <?php

    I have found that the new server running php5.3 will not accept <? . It requires <?php at the start of each page.

    Is there any setting that I can modify that will allow <? to work ???

    The task of changing ALL my web pages to <?php is daunting.

    Thanks in advance,

    John C

    On the new server, enable short tags - ON

    Many thanks for the solution.
    I knew that it was a matter of editing the php.ini file, but I couldn't remember what the edit was.
    Problem solved.
    Thank you very much.
