  • There is such thing as a documentation for php. Start reading it. You cannot develop in php without that anyway. – arkascha Aug 27 '16 at 09:06

"<?" : Short tags (you have to allow it from your server php.ini)
"<?php" : this represents php starting point.
"<?=" : it is just to show the output
example :

<?php $test= 'abc';?>
<?=$test?>
its output is abc
