What are the potential issues with short tags in PHP, and how can they be managed to prevent errors?

Short tags in PHP (<? ?>) can cause issues when code is moved to a server where short tags are not enabled. To prevent errors, it's recommended to use the full opening tag (<?php ?>) instead. This can be managed by configuring the PHP settings on the server to allow short tags, or by consistently using the full opening tag in your code. 

&lt;?php
// Use the full opening tag to prevent potential issues with short tags
echo &quot;Hello, World!&quot;;
?&gt;
