title: Can't use global variable in PHP
body: <p>I'm trying to use a global variable, but it's saying that there's a unexpected equal sign? How is that...?</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?php
  
  global $text = "text";
  echo $text;
  
  ?&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '=', expecting ',' or ';' in /home/chatwith/public_html/chatwithibot/test.php on line 3</p>
