Fixing MyDashboard 0.3.1 Fatal errors

This will (hopefully) affect very few of you. Though it all depends on how you (or your web host) have setup the configuration of PHP for your site.
If you get a "Fatal Error" report when you try to activate the MyDashboard plugin in WordPress, then you will need to download the following file: mydashboard.php and use it to replace your existing copy in the mydashboard directory.
For the technically minded, I used the PHP short tag (<?) in one of the functions instead of the safer (<?php) this new version replaces the short tag with the longer version. More details on PHP short tags and other PHP.INI settings can be found here.
This fix will be in all future versions of the MyDashboard plugin, as I have had few reports of problems so far I thought it easier to highlight the fix rather than build a new release around the change of a single line of code.
