php ignoring code after greater than sybmol

new to php -- please help.

it seems like php is treating any '>' character as the end of my code
segment, even when it's embedded in a string, as shown

<?
$s="THIS IS MY TEST STRING";
?>

please advise -- it seems like something stupid. i'm running with PHP
5.1.4 + PECL on Apache 2.0.58.

thanks!

Are you sure it's ignoring anything after the '>'? Or is in not working
because short tags is off?

Try using <?php to start your PHP code instead.

NP.

It's not a good idea to run with short tags on. For one thing, it will
conflict with XML code.

Also, please don't top post. This group uses bottom posting as a standard.
