Hello Guilherme,
if you would read the XML specs more carefulyl you'd find out that they
forbid stuff like <?= or even <?php=. consult the follwing excerpt:
2.6 Processing Instructions
[3] S ::= (#x20 | #x9 | #xD | #xA)+
[4] NameChar ::= Letter | Digit | '.' | '-' | '_' | ':' | CombiningChar |
Extender
[5] Name ::= (Letter | '_' | ':') (NameChar)*
[16] PI ::= '<?' PITarget (S (Char* - (Char* '?>' Char*)))? '?>'
[17] PITarget ::= Name - (('X' | 'x') ('M' | 'm') ('L' | 'l'))
[84] Letter ::= BaseChar | Ideographic
[85] BaseChar ::= [#x0041-#x005A] | [#x0061-#x007A] | [#x00C0-#x00D6] |
[#x00D8-#x00F6] | [#x00F8-#x00FF] | .....
[86] Ideographic ::= [#x4E00-#x9FA5] | #x3007 | [#x3021-#x3029]
[87] CombiningChar ::= [#x0300-#x0345] | .....
[88] Digit ::= [#x0030-#x0039] | [#x0660-#x0669] | .....
[89] Extender ::= #x00B7 | #x02D0 | .....
"=" == #x003D
