How can syntax errors in PHP scripts be identified and resolved effectively?

Syntax errors in PHP scripts can be identified by carefully reviewing the error message provided by the PHP interpreter. Common syntax errors include missing semicolons, parentheses, or curly braces. To resolve syntax errors, carefully check the code for any missing or misplaced syntax elements and make the necessary corrections. Example PHP code snippet: 

<?php

// Incorrect syntax with missing closing parenthesis
$name = "John";
echo "Hello, $name";

// Corrected syntax with added closing parenthesis
echo "Hello, $name";

?>
