 * After upgrading to php 7.3 from 7.1, this message appears on the site:
 * Warning: Use of undefined constant php – assumed ‘php’ (this will throw an Error
   in a future version of PHP) in /homepages/14/d695596583/htdocs/htdocs/esp/wp-
   content/themes/auriga/header.php on line 103
 * header.php, Line 103:
 * <?php/*?> <nav id=”site-navigation” class=”main-navigation” role=”navigation”
   >
 * What is the error?

 * Edit that line to remove `<?php/*?>`

 * Thanks for your reply. This forum is the only place to get assistance. When I
   removed <?php/*?>, header.php reverted to the unedited version because of an 
   error at line 112: <?php*/?>
 * When I removed line 112, the file saved, but the site header was askew.

 * Download a fresh copy of your theme and replace the header.php via FTP or your
   hosting control panel’s file manager app.
