[maplab-users] Short tags

[Sacha Fournier]

Hi,

All tags was short tags before the release of Maplab 2.0.1. And before 
the release we changed all files to use log tags. I guess some files 
sliped from our hands.

Anyway, We'll take a look before the next release, and make sure there's 
still no short tag used.

In the mean time, you can try to convert them automagicly by calling 
this simple (yeah right) perl command form your prompt, in each 
directory where you can find .php or .phtml files tha contain the short 
tag. It will convert to long tag.

perl -pi -e 's@<\?(\W)@<\?php$1@g' *.php *.phtml

We're really sorry about that. Hope this help.
