Bewildered I was….

I had installed Dataface ( as a replacement for Dadabik ) on a development box without any issues. When I tried install on a production machine, I wasn’t getting the first step:

http: ~/dataface/dataface_info.php - Just graphics no variables, etc..

After beating my head & looking at code, I knew it had something to do with tags are recognized.
; NOTE: Using short tags should be avoided when developing applications or
; libraries that are meant for redistribution, or deployment on PHP
; servers which are not under your control, because short tags may not
; be supported on the target server. For portable, redistributable code,
; be sure not to use short tags.
short_open_tag = On

PS to Steve - Disregard my email to you - Thanks
