PHP tags should default to <?PHP instead of <?

[fuzzylogic]

Hello,
I noticed that in Options => Preferences => Language Options => PHP

the default tag style is to use the short tags <?..?>
instead of the long/formal tags <?PHP .. ?>

if you read the documentation on the www.php.net web site you will find that the use of the short tags is discouraged.

So I suggest changing the default value to be the long/formal tags.

Agree. Short open tags should be avoided, because it creates possible XML conflicts.
