Hello group,
I use variable expansion like
<?=$HTTP_POST_VARS["foo"]?>
in some of my scripts. After updating to 5.3.3 (and possibly some
php.ini configuration updates), this expansion stopped working (it is
just put in literally into the document).
Since I do not know what that type of expansion is called and searches
for "php <?=$" were not really successful, I'd like to know: Is this
deprecated? If not, how do I reenable it?
Kind regards,
Johannes

The setting short_open_tag is disabled [1].
Either enable it in your php.ini or - much better - switch to proper
notation (in your case replace the <?= ... ?> with <?php echo ... ?>).

It wouldn't be something as simple as:
<?php echo $ARRAY_NAME["key"]; ?>
would it?

I think I heard (or read) they are deprecated, perhaps. Or I think that
not recommended.
....I guess.

It is indeed, thank you very much. Previously it was always enabled -
now it seems that with Gentoo it's disabled by default.

Hm - is the <?= variant deprecated? What's the problem with it?
Kind regards,

It's deprecated for various reasons. And the old long arrays are
deprecated too, so the above code should look like this instead:
<?php echo $_POST['foo'];?>

You better don't, and you should fix your libraries instead. But if you
absolutely need to use it, set short_open_tag to 1 in php.ini. Beware
incompatibilities, in particular with different server configurations and
XML declarations.
Both short tags and the $HTTP_* variables are deprecated since PHP 5; use
<?php echo $_POST['foo']; ?>
instead (and you probably want to escape it with, say, htmlspecialchars(),
too).
