Are you using iweb to create your website?
One possible solution is to do a file (if not already exist) called .htaccess and include in this file the following code:

php_flag short_open_tag off

Hello,

The problem is due to use of the <? to delineate different code to PHP

The modification to the previous file configures your web site to not accept short tags (<?) to delimit PHP code.

Because of this, to include PHP scripts on your pages must use the long tag (<?php) instead of the short tag (<?)

Thanks for the post. This was exactly my problem. I'm using iWeb. Put in the code suggested in the file .htaccess and works like a charm.

FYI:
The line in question is not only added by iWeb but can be added by other website editors too. So it is definitely worth checking the source code for that line
