make sure that you don't have space between <? AND php , it should be <?php ( this is opening tag ) , also make sure that you have { and } and neither of them missing in code block .

I would also suggest that you be sure to put the suggested code someplace AFTER the starting <?php tag in order to be correct syntax.
