Confirmed, I have a very similar issue on Ubuntu 7.10.

I have this line in my .htaccess file:

        php_flag short_open_tag         On

If I do a phpinfo(); under that dir, it shows that short_open_tag is "Off", instead of "On".

If I put a single space, like this, then it works fine:

        php_flag short_open_tag On

But one thing to note is that my server-wide default for short_open_tag is "On".  The extra spaces causes htscanner to actually set the WRONG value (Off) instead of just ignoring it and keeping the server-wide default of "On".

Thanks for your work on htscanner.  It is very useful for me.

Addendum to the above post: In my case the problem was due to many spaces (not a single TAB like the original submitter reported).
