Description:
------------
While trying to write valid html 4.01, I commented out an XML tag placed in an echo statement. This caused PHP to print out php code instead of html.



Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

# echo "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?> ";
echo "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN\">\n";
echo "<html>\n";

?>

<head>
<title>test</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>

<body>
test
</body>
</html>

Expected result:
----------------
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>

<head>
<title>test</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>

<body>
test
</body>
</html>


Actual result:
--------------
 ";
echo "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN\">\n";
echo "<html>\n";

?>

<head>
<title>test</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>

<body>
test
</body>
</html>
