[FX.php List] 1 success, one failure

[Bob Patin]

It was a problem w/ short open tags. I got this site from someone who  
wrote most of the code, and there's a messy combination of short and  
long open tags. Last night I got distracted when I was cleaning stuff  
up; I went thru some other sites a page at a time (that use the same  
original set of pages as this one) and fixed all the open tags, and it  
works fine. I've now fixed this one too.

Turns out that the update was really easy; I was sweating this. My  
largest webserver remains to be updated, but I'm going to take it  
carefully, go through every site and double-check, although when I  
write code I never use short open tags, so I don't think there will be  
a problem. The other error I've seen when sending something I wrote in  
PHP 4 to an outside host who's running PHP 5 is undeclared variables,  
which has happened when I've done paginating...
