>, which stands for "PHP: Hypertext
    Preprocessor", is an HTML-embedded scripting language.  Much
    of its syntax is borrowed from C, Java and Perl with a couple of
    unique PHP-specific features thrown in.  The goal of the language
    is to allow web developers to write dynamically generated pages
    quickly.
