Symptom:

1. The same code runs normally on some machines, but an error is reported when running on specific machines.

2. Some pages of the same site are displayed normally (for example, <? Php phpinfo () ;?> ), However, when you open some pages, phpxx_errors.log or the page displays the error message "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENDWHILE in xx. php on line xx ".

Error cause:

This error may be caused by the loss of a curly braces ("}") when writing a PHP script, but the more common cause is that the short_open_tag value in the php. ini file is Off.

Determine whether to allow the abbreviated form of the PHP code start sign (<? ?> ). If you want to use PHP in combination with XML, you can disable this option for Embedded use. <? Xml?>. Otherwise, PHP can be used for output, for example: <? Php echo '<? Xml version = "1.0" ';?>. If disabled, you must use the complete form of the PHP code start flag (<? Php?> ).

Note: This command also affects the abbreviated form <? =, It matches <? Echo is equivalent. To use this abbreviation, set the short_open_tag value to On. Short tags are not recommended. <? Php?> It is the standard method, but this short label is used for a long time (for historical reasons). to be compatible with the old Code, this feature is saved.

Solution:

Set the short_open_tag value in the php. ini file to On.
