 * I have short form of php tags i.e. <? and ?> disabled on my server, so only `
   <?php` will work. When going to the settings page I was getting a **Parse error:
   syntax error, unexpected $end in settings.inc.php on line 576**
 * I did a find and found on lines 26, 36 at the end of each line there is a `<?`.
 * On lines 559, 560, and 561 the buttons at the bottom of the settings page were
   being echoed with `<?=` rather than `<?php echo`.
 * And in settings.frame.inc.php on line 8 there is a short open for the h2 title
   of the settings screen.
 * Hopefully that will help anyone facing the same problem.
