how can it be updated the title says PHP 5.

Thanks cook, but since I am going to be using so many scripts from this book, shouldn't I just turn on Register_Globals?

I recently bought [i]PHP 5/MySQL Programming for the absolute beginner,[/i] because I am. I have installed PHP 5.1.4 on my Mac OS X running Apache 1.3 and it works. When I call the info, the info page shows up.
However, when I try any of the scripts from the book, they don't work. So is there a version conflct? or something about the author's syntax that's wrong? Here is the code as I use it:
<html>
<head>
<title>Hi User</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hi User</h1>
<?
if (empty($username)) {
print <<<HERE
<form>
Please enter your name:
<input type = "text"
name = "username"><br>
<input type = "submit">
</form>
HERE;
} else {
print "<h3>Hi there, $username!</h3>";
} //end
?>
</body>
</html>
If it is really apparent to you, then I apologize. But I am only beginning and it's frustrating if I can't even use the code in a book for beginners. help. This is what I get:
