[PHP] MSFT Front Page inserts quotes
I have a client which edits all his PHP pages as HTML files in MSFT Front Page. That's not been a problem until now, as the pages are all straight HTML except for a bit at the very top. Here's the problem. We need this line at the top of the page, ahead of the HTML tag, for an automatic login routine: ? session_start();session_register( origin );$origin=$PHP_SELF; ..and a bunch of stuff ... ? Front Page insists on doing this to the line: ? session_start();session_register( origin );$origin= $PHP_SELF; ..and a bunch of stuff ... ?, putting quotation marks around $PHP_SELF; like so : $PHP_SELF; Needless to say this causes parse errors. I can open the file in the HTML tag of Front Page, eliminate the quotes and save it. When I reopen the file the quotes have reappeared. I have removed the file from the Front Page web, edited it using a plain ASCII editor, then reloaded it. Guess what, the quotes magically reappear. Does anyone have any suggestions? It's Front Page 98 by the way. For those of you who are wondering how I change these files to PHP I just parse them after they are uploaded to the server, changing all links to point to .php rather than .html and saving the changed files with .php extensions.

Why not just use an auto_prepend rule in your config and prepend that bit of PHP code automatically without touching the FrontPage-generated crap? -Rasmus On Mon, 7 Jan 2002, Miles Thompson wrote: I have a client which edits all his PHP pages as HTML files in MSFT Front Page.

Re: [PHP] MSFT Front Page inserts quotes
The dull thud you hear is me giving myself a good whack on the side of the head. I don't want to require a security check / auto-login for every file on the site, so I'm just removing the offending text to an include and trying it that way.
