  The problem with your code is that have a second set of < ?php tags when you don't need them.

  Your code should be as follows:
  

  $username = $_COOKIE['ID_my_site'];

  echo 'Add me as:
  ‘;
  echo ‘

  ‘;
  echo ‘
  value="' . $username . '" /> Camera
  ‘;
  echo ‘
  Commentator
  ‘;
  echo ‘

  ‘;
  echo ‘
  ‘;
  echo ‘
  ‘;
  echo ‘‘;
  ?>

  Just be aware that I changed
  < ?php echo $username; ?>

  to:
  ‘ . $username . ‘

  Since you are echoing out the html using single quotes, which is the better way to do it, you need to specify the variable of $username outside of the string, and use concatenation ( the period ) to join everything together so you can echo each line correctly.
