Greetings, thank you for taking the time to look at my problem.
I am making revisions to an existing site which I did not develop. I've been asked to create a couple of forms which email back the data to my client. For these kinds of forms, I always use the simple PHP form code. The problem is that the original developer has used ssi's for the main navigation and the footer. So when I add the PHP extension to a web file instead of html, I lose the virtual includes. So, for instance, my thank you page comes back with no navigation or footer.
Basically what I did was take an existing page and place new html code ("Thank for your submission, blah, blah, blah") in the main content area and place the PHP code in the head and gave the file a PHP extension.
I have two forms like this, and I also have one other page that uses some simple PHP code that allows site vistors to upload resumes to a DropBox account. Again, because the page has PHP code, its file extension is PHP and thus I lose the navigation and footer includes.
I've read this article but it doesn't seem to describe my issue. I also came across this thread in the newbie forum, but frankly I'm not fully understanding what's be described. I don't think I have to alter any directory files on the server since the ssi's already work with files ending in html.
Unfortunately, I am not well versed in PHP. But any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you again for your time!
