Question

Yii

Good afternoon. Don't tell me I just started learning PHP in Yii when displaying a link, this is how it works

<li><?=   Html::a( 'Главная' ,  '/web/' )   ?></li>

it doesn't show up like that

<li><?php   Html::a( 'Главная' ,  '/web/' );   ?></li>
<li><?php   Html::a( 'Главная' ,  '/web/' )   ?></li>
