I just switched servers to a server running PHP Version 5.5.9 and Nginx and in the middle of the php code being parsed is this code:
$this_page_cats = array ("Examples<br>& Solutions");
On this new server, php stops parsing at the '>' in the '<br>' above instead of waiting until the '?>' that truly ends the code. I assume there's some simple configuration directive that would correct the problem but I can't seem to find it Googling around.
Thanks!
It's not PHP stopping parsing, it's PHP not being parsed at all:
e.g. with PHP not working properly, your PHP code is going out to the user's browser AS-IS:
<?php
^---start of unknown HTML tag
$this_page_cats = array ("Examples<br>& Solutions");
^---end of unknown HTML tag
Do a "view source" and you'll probably see ALL of your php code.
