Well, you haven't said whether you're getting a PHP syntax error or a
JavaScript error. If it's JavaScript error, then the PHP has nothing to
do with it, and vice versa. Either way, it's nothing to do with MySQL
(this is evident from the fact that echo $rec; gives a value).
In future, please learn to narrow down the possible causes, and post to
appropriate groups accordingly, as well as snipping irrelevant bits of code.
Note that whether you're able to use <?= ?> tags is
configuration-dependent, namely "short tags" option. Look it up in the
manual...
