I don't really mind about <? versus <?php, cuz I can cope either way.
I even find <?php a bit more readable, for some reason.
But I sure wish <?= would work even without short_tags on.
As I understand it, <? needed to go away because of XHTML, no?
But is <?= a valid beginning for XML/XHTML?
If not, why did it get lumped in with short_tags?
