Display Date

[Anon]

Hi, I have a html file, in which i want php to display the date, do i have to call the php function from a php file or can i call the function from my html file. e.g.

File1.htm

<?php ?>

or

File2.htm

<?php
$ret = include 'thefilewiththedatefucntion.php';
?>

<? print "$Date";?>

any ideas?

Thanks

to parse the PHP in a .html or .htm file you will need to tell the server to send file through the PHP parser. At that point you can call the PHP functions directly

Hey Chris I am also new at this...

the key here is to make sure that your .html pages are parsed by PHP (you may have to ask your isp if your server can do this.) IF you can all you need to do is past this in.

<? print(date("l - F jS, Y")); ?>

in your HTML page.

Blessed Be Well,
