php + html

Anon

Hello,

I just started with PHP and I built a small database. When I start the PHP page (test.php) it just works!
But when I use PHP in my HTML code nothing happens!
Even the simplest PHP example ("hello world") does not work.
What can I do about it?

You should try tu run the phpinfo() function and validate all your server variables.

PHP code will not be parsed if it is written in HTML file.

You can do one this , save your html page as your test.php and run it then it will be parsed..

Without html it works great! When I start the php part with C:\Intepub\Localhost[name].php it works! When I make a link to the above php file from another html page it also doesn't work.

CODE:

<head>

<body>

<?php
$connect = odbc_connect("bv", "sa", "");

$query = "SELECT * FROM phonebk";

$result = odbc_do($connect, $query);

print("<TABLE BORDER=0>");
while(odbc_fetch_row($result))
{
print("<TR>");
$name = odbc_result($result, 1);
$nummer = odbc_result($result, 3);
$ov = odbc_result($result, 5);
$ove = odbc_result($result, 7);
$over = odbc_result($result, 14);
print("<TD>$name</TD> <TD>$nummer</<TD> <TD>$ov</TD> <TD>$ove</TD> <TD>$over\n</TD>");
print("</TR>");
}
print("</TABLE>\n");

// close the connection
odbc_close($connect);
?>

</body>

Karel,

Your code looks okay. As mentioned breifly, it could deal with your file extentions. If you are trying to parse php code in a .html file, it has to be added to the addtype configuration in your apache. If your domain is given permissions, you can use a .htaccess file to alter what types php will parse in.
