What do I need to add to my .htaccess so <? gets recognised as <?php?

It seems my server is not responding to <?, and needs <?php. How can I make it recognise <? as well?

The short_open_tag is what is classified as PHP_INI_PERDIR which means that it can be set in php.ini, .htaccess, httpd.conf or .user.ini (since PHP 5.3). You can't use ini_set(). A phpinfo() will tell you whether you are using mod_php5 (in which case you can use the php_flag directive or using suEXEC/suPHP/FastCGI in which case you can use php.ini or .user.ini to set this.

However as hakre says, it is better to bet out of the habit of using short tags.
