Currently the options are
<?php ... ?> and
<script language="php"> ... </script> and if you enable it in ini file
<? ... ?>. I would like to know if there is any ways to change or add more of these options. For example
<php> ... </php>

You do, however, have the option of not using "?>"

It was slightly off-topic, but what I was noting is that if you are using the PHP tags <? or <?php then you don't necessarily need to include ?>. For example,


<?php echo "Here's some PHP in a block that I'm not going to close!";

Correct, but... it has to be the end of the file

this works to:


<?=$varname ?>

to quickly add display a variable, its highly discouraged tho...
