Hello Sir,

        Thanks for spending time for my mail and thanks for you kind
response, but sir though php is a server side scripting language it
supports the following tag

<script language="php">....</script> 

This is mentioned in the php manual, and I have done lot of scripts
of same kind using above tags an' all of them are working fine.

This is part of php manual

Migrating from PHP/FI 2.0 to PHP 3.0 
Start/end tags

   The first thing you probably will notice is that PHP's start and end
   tags have changed. The old <? > form has been replaced by three new
   possible forms:

   Example A-1. Migration: old start/end tags
<? echo "This is PHP/FI 2.0 code.\n"; >

   As of version 2.0, PHP/FI also supports this variation:

   Example A-2. Migration: first new start/end tags
<? echo "This is PHP 3.0 code!\n"; ?>
   Notice that the end tag now consists of a question mark and a
   greater-than character instead of just greater-than. However, if you
   plan on using XML on your server, you will get problems with the first
   new variant, because PHP may try to execute the XML markup in XML
   documents as PHP code. Because of this, the following variation was
   introduced:

   Example A-3. Migration: second new start/end tags
<?php echo "This is PHP 3.0 code!\n"; ?>

   Some people have had problems with editors that don't understand the
   processing instruction tags at all. Microsoft FrontPage is one such
   editor, and as a workaround for these, the following variation was
   introduced as well:

   Example A-4. Migration: third new start/end tags
<script language="php">

  echo "This is PHP 3.0 code!\n";
</script>

                        Thanking you,

cheers :)
