It's best practice to omit the PHP closing tag for files that just contain PHP.

This is because it's too easy to insert whitespace after the closing tag. If you're using a function like header, session_start or setcookie, which send HTTP headers, no whitespace can be sent before the headers. If it is, you get the "headers already sent" error.
