php is failing in xampp 1.7.3

php is recognizing > instead of ?> as the end of php script - see example below. Have checked 11 pages with the same result.

<?
// ---------------------- read scan file --------------------
if(isset($_COOKIE['graph_table_data_d']))
{
$row = $_COOKIE['graph_table_data_d'];
$row1 = $_COOKIE['graph_table_data_squelch'];
}

$base_file_name = explode('_',$row);
$base_file_name1 = explode('____',$row);

$address = "$base_file_name[0].$base_file_name[1].$base_file_name[2]_$base_file_name[3].$base_file_name[4].$base_file_name[5].txt";
//echo $address."-address \n"; <------- php script stops here instead of at end (?>)
$directory = '../Scans/demo_database/';
$counter_file = $directory.$address;
//print("counter_file = $counter_file ");

does any one have a cure??????

use v1.7.1 anything else just does not work, v1.7.1 works perfectly on any script.
Hopefully enough people will see this try for themselves and then make a big enough fuss for someone to listen.

version 1.7.2 works well in the above case!

No, short tags are deactivated also in 1.7.2.

don't know that..but it worked for me out of the box on my clean install of xampp v.1.7.2 (without any addons installed).

Maybe your script, but the above case and sample code can't work in a out of the box clean install of xampp v.1.7.2.

hmm.. you are right some what..

I tried running this:

Code: Select all: <?php echo 'Can gophers really code PHP?'; ?> <?php echo '<hr>line 2 test<hr>' ?>

this worked as it should.. but the one below..? check it out for yourself~

Code: Select all: <?php print("Can gophers really code PHP?"); print("<hr>line 2 test<hr>"); ?>

I am getting extra text/chars in the output ? the parenthesis, the semi-colon all of 'em are pooping up from no where?!

Can anybody tell me why is it so?

Hmm, I have both times the same (correct) output.

I think I have a similar issue. Was not able to extract a solution from the thread. So here it is:

I created this .php page:

<html>
<head>
<title>PHP Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php echo 'Hello World'; ?>
</body>
</html>

I loaded it in the browser (mozilla firefox) and got this as output:

Hello World

'; ?>

It is as if the recognition of php command is not fully complete.

Which way to solve that issue? I have used xampp 1.7.3

when I started firefox 3.6.8 with your excample it works fine. I use XAMPP 1.7.3 too, no changes in any ini or conf
(localhost/test.php)
