Php In Htm Document?!

Hi,

Is it possible to add a samll php script to a HTM page.

i have tried to do this in a web editor and it will not work.

Is it possible and how and if not can you make a php page for the main page and then all the other pages of the website can just be normal - if you get me, lol.

Say if there is a PHP builder and editor can i use it and is there an easy one to use. Can you just type the text and then get the code at the end.

I hope your with me and i would love you to reply.

Thanks,

Daniel

Hi,

Assuming you mean can you use just a bit of PHP on a page containing HTML, the answer is yes, but the page must be called .php, or.php3, depending on how your webserver has configured the webserver.

All you do is...

<html>

(HTML code goes here...)

<?
//PHP code goes here
?>

(rest of HTML code goes here...)

</html>

As to writing HTML and PHP, I cannot recommend enough HTML-Kit, from http://www.chami.com. Not only is it free, but it colourises code and HTML for you, very good for free software. I've also heard good things of Dreamweaver MX, but that is a leeetle bit more expensive.

Many thanks,
