About the unexpected T_VARIABLE

["michael@xxxxxxxxxxx" <michael@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi;
 
  I'm new in php. I has try some sample code in the book
<? php
$hamburger = 4.95;

$milkshake = 1.95;

$cola = .85;

$food = 2 * $hamburger + $milkshake + $cola;

$tax = $food * .075;

$tip = $food * .16;

$total = $food + $tax + $tip;

print "Total cost of the meal is \$$total";

?>

But I always get "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in e:\Inetpub\wwwroot\meal.php on line 2"

So any suggestion

Regards

Michael
