PHP in HTML

[Guest]

I have a pre existing web page that is strictly written in HTML. I have a
couple of pieces that i have written in PHP that i would like use in the
existing files but i don't want to copy the code into each file. i want to
use them as includes but i can't get it to work. Any have any ideas on PHP
and how to get it to display?

You will have to rename all the .htm pages to .php pages for the server PHP engine (if you host has one) to recognize the PHP code
Recommend you use server side includes
(can probably be added thru Search & Replace in all pages / html)
Alternatively you can use Design time FP Include pages

What do you mean by server side includes and how would i do that. My server
is running php by the way.

<!--- #INCLUDE FILE = "yourpath/SomePage.php" --->

Rendered by the server

probably one of the best ways to do this is to alter the mime type.
in other words you can call your php page something.htm and even the .htm
page it's included into can remain .htm/.html

here's an explanation on how to do it. it's easier than it looks. I've
done extensive things with php in FrontPage using this method and it works
great (especially if you're using FrontPage)
