    Hi guys,

    I set up my window vista IIS 7 with php 5 and it does not work properly. For example:

    when i do a <? phpinfo(); ?> , it wont show up any data but when i put up <?php phpinfo(); ?>, it shows fine.

    Furthermore, when i put <?=$variable;?> , it won't show up too, unless i put <?php echo $variable; ?>

    Help please.

    Edit your php.ini to allow short tags...
    Uncomment this line: short_open_tag = On
    Restart apache
