PHP shown in Dreamweaver, but only Shields in Contribute...

kewlDevil · kewlDevil

I want to include some code snippets with PHP and all seems to work fine with
Dreamweaver,
but Contribute shows only a PHP-Shield. Can somebody help me please?

this ist my simple code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<title>Titel</title>
</head>

<body>
<?php include("test.htm"); ?>
</body>
</html>

test.htm:
<div style="border:2px solid #900">
<p>PLEASE SHOW MY, CONTRIBUTE!!!</p>
</div>

Alan · Alan

> <body>
> <?php include("test.htm"); ?>
> </body>
> </html>

Contribute doesn't render server side scripting. All you will see of the
above code is the yellow shield icon to represent the php statement.
It won't display, and it's not editable in contribute by normal means.

Huuuh? But I've read about it. And Dreamweaver renders this page correctly. It
doesn't show the php icon.
And a SSI-Include works within Contribute, too. Why not a PHP-Include. I was
sure to heard about it

really? (Please excuse my pighead)

And why does a SSI work in Contribute?
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"

Or doesn't SSI belong to server scripting?

It doesn't. It's not scripting - it's a server directive (I think that's
what you would call it).

When you use ASP (or VBScript) its a server directive and gets parsed before
the ASP code, but with PHP the include() function is part of the language,
which is why PHP is able to use variable includes.

if(condition) {
include(url)
} else {
include(url)
}

I'm guessing this is why Contribute doesn't render PHP includes in edit mode.
I do know that ASP includes will render though. That is, if the ASP includes
only contain static text and HTML. It won't display any dynamic text.

How does an ASP include look?

Same as it would inside Dreamweaver. If you have a table inside of your
include, it will render a table in edit view.

The problem may be that he's not calling to his include correctly. Look at
this.
[url]http://www.w3schools.com/asp/asp_incfiles.asp[/url]

it says there that "Use the virtual keyword to indicate a path beginning with
a virtual directory." So as I recall, when using the virtual keyword your path
to the include should always begin with a slash.

Otherwise he should use

So, looking at a page of markup, you cannot tell whether I am using an ASP
include or an HTML include without knowing the filename. That was my
point - they are the same markup, no?

I assume you mean "markup" as in, "wysiwyg rendering"... if thats the case, then yes.

Except Contribute won't display PHP includes. But Dreamweaver will.

No, I mean markup as in HTML. The two have the identical syntax - HTML
imclud and ASP include.

> Except Contribute won't display PHP includes. But Dreamweaver will.

Sure. There's no argument about that.
