Php installed but can't embed in html code
Hi
I have installed mysql, apache and php latest versions on win xp. I have followed instructions precisely in 'PHP and MySQL Web Development by Luke Welling and Laura Thomson'. Now mysql is fine.... and when I type in http://localhost I get the correct page so Apache must be configured right And finally when I type in http://localhost/test.php (pointing to a test page with phpinfo()) the php4 page appears in my browser, so that is apparently installed properly. I also installed PEAR. But... umm when I try to embed php in my html page, just a simple echo, it is a no go. It neither works nor hides the raw php on the output page.... I have read the doc you have pointed to, a bit beyond me really as I am new to php etc, but i feel there must be something pretty obvious missing here. Thanks if you could give me a hand. Is there something specific I have missed?

RE: Php installed but can't embed in html code
what happens when you view source? does it show up in yoru source? Also, is the extension of that page you are including in php? It wont parse if it is just an .html file.

RE: Php installed but can't embed in html code
Hi,
I had installed everything all right, Apache, PHP, MySQL. The problem was in my understanding of Apache being a web server. Basically put your pages in htdocs, or directories inside htdocs. And that is fine. Why you just can't double click them and look at them on your local machine is that it is in the Apache server. If you type in http://localhost/mypage.php or whatever and you see your page, well that is working fine. I thought for some reason I should be able to double click and view a page. Nobody thought to explain to me either and it caused me no end of grief. I hope this is of some help. Steven www.nortypig.com www.blog.nortypig.com
