Probably because you tried to use a short tag here:

 

delete

 

Change the   to <?php

Thanks for the guidance. But once i change it. I only able to display table without data. Any solution?

If you have short tags off in the php.ini you can't use short tags -- so anyplace you used you need <?php.
