title: XML Making PHP Unexpected String Error
body: <p>I am getting this error  </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p><b>Parse error</b>: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in
    <b>/ho.../ssd/recording-goodbye.php</b> on line <b>1</b><br /></p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I have found that this line is causing this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt; 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I think this is because short tags are enabled on this server, it's a shared hosting account and I don't have access to the php.ini file. Is there a way I can perhaps set the headers or escape this line?</p>
  
  <p>This is the full content of recording-goodbye.php</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?php echo '&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt;'; ?&gt;
  &lt;Response&gt;
      &lt;Say&gt;Thanks for your recording.  Here is what I heard&lt;/Say&gt;
      &lt;Play&gt;&lt;?php echo $_REQUEST['RecordingUrl']; ?&gt;&lt;/Play&gt;
      &lt;Say&gt;Goodbye&lt;/Say&gt;
  &lt;/Response&gt;
  </code></pre>
