Indeed. However, type=3D"text/php" will not be interpreted here.

Well, combine the fact the script tag which works is invalid in XHTML & =
=
higher versions of (strict) HTML, the obvious confusion of cwdjrxyz abou=
t =
it in the other answer, and the fact that PHP doesn't end up in the =
document, but is a processing instruction, which should be at least <? ?=

and you don't want PHP to mess with you other non-PHP processing =
instructions, I take it quite literally to mean it would be best for all=
=
concerned to use <?php ?>. Besides the fact you can have characters in a=
=
PHP script otherwise illegal in XML, and thus XHTML (&, <, >...)

Nope, if I had, I would've immediatly posted it. AFAIK, you can use it, =
it =
will work, but for clarities sake I sincerely believe using <?php ?> wou=
ld =
be best for all concerned.
