Re: [PHP] Re: Continuance of the struggle (trying to understand)
Col: Congratulations on becoming a father!! As a father of 3 myself, I know the joys that infants bring :) As for your scripting issues, I would suggest that you save your files with the .php extension, and not the .html. The .php extension will tell the php compliler/parser/whatever and spit back the "compiled" php script. If you're looking to just have a "photo gallery", there are many free/opensource gallery scripts out there that you can use. Mind you, there is no "sense of accomplishment" when you do it this way, but if you're unsure about security, and file injection/sql injection, then you may be better off using one of those, until you're further along in your book :) http://www.google.ca/#sclient=psy&hl=en&q=opesource+php +gallery&aq=f&aqi=g-sx1g-o1&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=&pbx=1&fp=f85a0cf66583c3ac in the past, I set up coppermine for a friend of mine, and he said it works ok... but like I said, there are lots out there, and maybe consider using one of them for now, so you can spend more time with your new baby :) Steve.

It will only work if your listing supports php, but you should just be able to put the whole sure up on your hosting, give the upload directory the correct permissions ( its most likely a more secure Linux hosting than insecure windows hosting) Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk - Reply message - From: "Col Day" Date: Thu, Oct 7, 2010 08:33 Subject: [PHP] Re: Continuance of the struggle (trying to understand) To: Morning all, Apologies for the delay, I've just become a Dad for the first time so a little distracted!

Needless to say, new baby so want to show him off (Callum, 7lb4oz) so decided to buy a webname and pay for hosting, however money is a bit tight, so being adventurous (or stupid, not sure which yet) I set up apache on my laptop and started writing a website in Serif's WebPlus10.

This is where it started getting tricky as I was using the PHP for dummies book from 2006.

Hi Shreyas, Ok, as far as I can tell the script should show "This is an HTML line" reflecting that I am seeing the HTML part of the script followed by "This is a PHP line" to show that PHP is installed and working fine. If I view the script directly in IE by going to http://localhost/phptest.php I get the output: This is an HTML line This is a PHP line followed by a large and detailed list of the PHP install which includes things like compiler language etc. If I paste the script into a web page then all that is displayed is This is an HTML line. Nothing else whatsoever. I am fairly confused. I've tried a couple of different web page creators (Webplus 10 and Web page maker) and get the same result.
