I know that the lower-case <?php-Tag is the right way.

But i have a application where all <?PHP opening tags a upper-case. On our local server and our online Webserver the upper-case opening tags are working well. But on our Test Webserver we had a Issue with that. The PHP interpreter is ignoring everything between the tags.

I know i can simply run a search and replace script to change the tags. But i want to know why this happend. Can anyone help?

P.S. the test system and the online system are identical.

there is no difference. how Sergiu Paraschiv says the tag php is case insensitivi. Here are the valid ways to open PHP tags 

<?php ?> // standard tags
<? ?> // short tags, need short_open_tag enabled in php.ini
<% %> // asp tags, need asp_tags enabled in php.ini
