While I agree with CJ and Scott, there is a useful construct that can be
used with short tags (<?) and if your code is running on a server you
control (as can be the case for a lot of web developers, run clients code
on servers you control) it can make for easier to read code:

<?=$foo?>

is equivalent to:

<?php echo $foo ?>

Anyway, just thought I'd add that in.

Cheers,

Andy
