you say its because of coding short tags as the issue right? wrong... even using <?php and ?> makes no difference
people in the thread have even explained they have tried using the correct tags and shortcut tags same issue.

This is a missing cog in the wheel it's not going to go away so putting your head into the sand and thinking its people
who's coded scripts is doing it wrong its not... its xampp something is wrong why wont you look into this properly?

its actually thinking a > is a ?> thats the problem so any html tag what so ever that has a < > its seeing > as ?>

why on earth wont you test this out yourself?

This is not a PHP5 issue i have installed manually MYSQL Server, + PHP5 + Apache stand-alone and it does not do it.
it is SOMETHING you have missed or missing in your bundled package.

anything newer than 1.7.1 will not work with PHP any script any website anything with HTML, PHP, will not work on anything newer than 1.7.1
you keep updating 1.7x more and more but you are not fixing this major issue.

this effects vbulletin, ipb, phpbb, mybb, torrent scripts, hosting scripts, everything!!!!

the only reason no-body has come accross this problem (hosting site wise) they are running Standalone php5 not XAMPP!!!

My god why won't you listen to your users this is a MAJOR!!! error.

Did you have a (out of the box working) small sample script which shows the problem?

lol i shouldn't need anything as an example script to test look above this post 1.7.2/3 upwards does not work with anything
you test it out yourself, phpbb, mybb, flashchat, flashtalk, ipb, vbulletin, you name it .. it wont work right!!

here's your sample

http://sourceforge.net/projects/tbdevne ... r/download

Basic pre-made torrent script since its the easiest to find to show you how screwed up 1.7.2/3 is as it works perfectly on 1.7.1.

new 1.7.2 running y0ursource on XAMPP look at the mess it has when it hits the PHP

Again below another screen running same script index.php with 1.7.2
http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/3463/proof2a.jpg

Below is what the 2 images above should look like this was done with 1.7.1
http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/6246/ysproof1.jpg

Again another 1.7.1 this is what the second screen should look like

here's your sample

No, that's a complete software package and not a simple sample script.
--> If you think something is wrong with ">" and "?>" please provide a sample script. I can't reproduce this.

you test it out yourself, phpbb, mybb, flashchat, flashtalk, ipb, vbulletin, you name it .. it wont work right!!

I don't know anything about these software packages and can't give support for 3rd party software. Please ask the support of these packages which Aapche/MySQL/PHP version is supported from these software and how you must configure your server to get these software working (in case the software is not working with the default settings for Apache/MySQL/PHP).

yes it's a complete package so what??? run and install the damn thing like everyone else
and look at the sheer mess , then do the same again only this time with v1.7.1 and see the real outcome.

no there is no short script to test ffs every software package be it forums or anything of that kind comes as a full package lol.

my god you know there's a massive problem here and you refuse to test it with a "package" that millions of people are using daily
and telling you it does not work no more on xampp... forget your short scripts and use the packages that people are using and saying it does not work.

or are you affraid were all right and you dont have a damn clue how to fix this complete cluster fuck of a mess?

Ask the support of this software package what's the problem and what are the requirements to run this software package.

(especially for forum software you must do this also for each mod you are using)

you know i've heard some reply's in my time from authors or people who work on scripts but this is a classic.

sorry you don't know any of them packages lmao this bloody forum is run from one of them packages you dont know.
tell me what "packages" do you know and i'll actually take my time to test with the ones YOU know hows that.

hell i should be support here for the help and lenth's your willing to go too.

lets face it people this issue will never get fixed xampp is now completely useless as a package all its useful for is a web server.
there is a fault people are telling you over and over again their paid premium software no longer works on v1.7.2/3 and you still
continue to go the route of "its not our problem check with the 3rd party vendors etc etc"

Tell me o wise one what software should we be using as a 3rd party to check that its xampp and not their software?
lets face it were never going to get any further with this because you refuse to take the time and test different packages for yourself.

you've made xampp to run a webserver, which supports php, and has a db engine but when we try to use it for that it was designed for
you tell us to contact 3rd party about the problem lol, it's laughable.

there must be someone else here a admin or a team member who actually wrote and put xampp together we can talk to about this
because you sir are less than helpful and bordering on useless.

What did the Creator use to test xampp on?? the testing beta processes what scripts and packages did they use to beta test the xampp package?
or did no testing take place since none of you seem to know any packages or scripts at all that uses php lol

this is a complete joke

BTW i'll ASK myself the 3rd party Creator what my script supports

y0ursource: = www.y0ursource.com = AKA i am the bloody vendor !!!!

Code: Select all
<?
function test($x$y)
{
    if (
$x $y) {
        echo 
"x is greater than y";
    } else {
        echo 
"y is greater than or equal to x";
    }
}

echo 
test(1,2);
?>    


Problem is that the PHP code after the > in the if statement is streamed to the browser.

Doesn't happen if you change <? to <?php

Exactly what we have written all over this thread:
You have to use "<?php" and not "<?" and so that's the expected behavior.
(or you must change the php.ini setting "short_open_tag" which is not recommended)

So there is no bug and the first chapter in the PHP manual is explaining this too:
