Problem installing a php script on WAMP

On your WAMP installation, have you got the use of short tags ( the <?php and ?> tags ) enabled? To play it safe with any php code you should use the full <?php tag then if you ever have to migrate to a server that has got the use of short tags disabled then you won’t have a problem of the php not being recognised
