Tried replacing with your suggested code and the <? print strftrime(
shows up in the form frame window with "> on the outside of the frame
(just to the right). Thank you for the reply. Did that little
snippet of code work on your end with your suggestion?

Try <?php instead of <?. <? only works if short_open_tag is enabled, and
sounds as if it isn't on your set-up.

That just means that PHP was not executed. I didn't test it, but I've done
it million gazillion times to know it works if everything else is okay. I'm
curious though, in your previous example: was the date output correctly when
the php code was outside the input field? I mean if it was: I don't know
what the hell broke it now. It should've been printed below the input field.
Just do what Oli suggested and replace <? ?> with <?php ?>. And tell us if
you usually get any kind of php output.
