How to enable PHP short tags?

I have a web application on a Linux server which starts with <?

I needed to copy this application to a windows environment and everything is working fine except that an SQL statement is being rendered differently. I don't know if this has to do with the script beginning with <?php instead of <? because I don't know from where to enable the <? from the PHP.ini so I changed it to <?php

I know that these 2 statements are supposed to mean the same but I need to test it with <? in order to ensure that the application is exactly the same. This way I can eliminate another possibility.

Thanks

Solution

  • Set

    short_open_tag=On

    in php.ini

    And restart your Apache server.
