how can I print php code to screen

Does anyone know how to print PHP and HTML code to the screen (ie display on a webpage without having it processed)?

Thanks a lot.

Mike.

Hiya,

By processed I assume you mean compiled at the server.

If you want to print out html code or php code without it being compiled then do not use php!

Simply make an html page.

If there is something I missed, please restate your question in a different way.

Mike's right, except watch the use of "$" if you're dumping out variables, you'll probably get a parse error. 🙂

Yes, it is actually quite easy to have the PHP code print to the screen. Just use this function

show_source(filename);

Where filename is the name of the PHP or HTML file you want to display the source code for.
