php with frontpage

[Peter]

1.)Is it possible to include a .php page? I am pulling
results from a mysql database. i would like the results
to be inside of a table on an .htm page i created. i know
i have to change the extension to .php extension and i
have done that. everything looks fine, but then i cant go
back into frontpage and use the design mode or preview
mode to change other aspects of my webpage.

2.)Also, When i change an existing page that has a dwt
attached with included pages to a .php page, everything
looks fine, but if i make changes to an included page
none of the changes update. Can u tell me why?

thanks in advance,
Peter

You can not include server-side script in standard HTML page, the page must have .php extensions,
etc.

FP really doesn't have any build-in support for PHP.

Have you set FP up as the editor for .php pages?

Don't know if this helps or not but there is a FrontPage addon for php
http://www.totalpconline.com/phprocketaddin/?page=main.html there is a 30
day trial.

Some settings to get ready when using php with fp. (will wrap cut and paste)

Re 2)
After you change your include are you reopening the DWT template and re-applying it to your pages
