You need to tell apache to run html files through the php interpreter:
ie. AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .html
then restart apache

You need to setup your apache server to accept and parse .html files as PHP.
Add this line or modify it to look like this in your httpd.conf file.
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html .shtml

I see no problem. It seems that hi.html is being treates as HTML, and
hi.php is being treated as PHP. No surprise there.
You can modify this behavior and make Apache treat .html files as PHP by
adding .html to your AddType directive in httpd.conf. Are you really
sure this is what you need?

I'm trying to compress down a php-powered javascript file.
In the file i have php run a bunch of loops and foreaches to build
huge nested arrays for use in the javascript.
Since this will be an often loaded page with ALOT of backend
processing, I've decided to compress the file as much as I can and
cache the resulting 'js' file.
Trimming whitespace, etc have been easy in the buffer i have, but I'm
having trouble trying to remove empty javascript satements that do
nothing but add to the page weight.
code:
/*
remove useless statements like " case '15': { break;} "
*/
$buffer =
preg_replace('/case(\s)?\'(\d)\'(\s)?:(\s)?[{](\s)?(break;)?(\s)?[}]/',
'', $buffer);
I have a bad feeling that its something in my regex, but can't quite
tell... I want it to allow for spaces (only), 'break;' should be
optional. and any number.
I usually tend to understand regexs, not sure why this one isn't working out...

Do you not trust the description? It seems to me that "1" cannot start a
name. I bet $news['id'] starts with a "1" in this case.
I'm not really sure what you're asking...

"In CSS 2.1, identifiers (including element names, classes, and IDs in
selectors) can contain only the characters [A-Za-z0-9] and ISO 10646
characters U+00A1 and higher, plus the hyphen (-) and the underscore
(_); they cannot start with a digit."
I can't see how this is related to PHP.

Nice suggestion! But I wonder... would it perhaps be better to use the
&& operator instead of the AND operator? That way in case you are
trying to do an assignment PHP won't bother to check instanceof if the
class_exists() fails.
if (class_exists($class) && $cls instanceof $class)
{
}
The only difference between && and AND is precedence, so the second
statement won't be executed with either one.

Two ways to resolve it:
1,simplest, rename your file as xxx.php, in order to let php
interpreter to process the script.
2, as just now others saying, add file type 'html' to the list which
interpreter would process.

Hi,
We have an a auction like site, now we have to add a search feature to the
site, the searching will be done for 2 fields:
subject and description (ad_sub, ad_text).
Since i have never done this before, I would appreciate some advise on how
to do it.
I was thinking of getting the search string, running an explode() on it and
then doing a LIKE sql query to get the results on each word...but then that
would add up to quite a bit if even 5 words were written (5 queries each for
the subject and 5 for the text)
Any help in the form of advise, links, code, examples etc would be
appreciated.
After googleing a bit I have gotten a bit of help from some of the pages but
not much, one very helpful bit of advise i got was to ignore works like:
the, a, in
as they are too common...if you have anymore to add, please feel free to
write it.
Thanks in advance,
Ryan

Heh... no, I was already using double quotes. I also tried using actual
carriage returns in the string, that didn't work either.
Is error_log simply incapable of obeying carriage returns within the

I prefer purpose it's the design concept in PHP error log.
If I would design a system containing error msg displaying. I would
also just simplly ignore the carriage returns character which the
programer passes to my system, in order to keep graceful in sight.

No, I've used error_log() plenty, and I've never had a problem. Can you
show us a specific example that would let us reproduce the problem locally?

Yes,
documentation says :
"If safe mode is enabled, the uid of the script is added to the realm part
of the WWW-Authenticate header. "
and second :
"The HTTP Authentication hooks in PHP are only available when it is running
as an Apache module and is hence not available in the CGI version"
and also :
"Also note that until PHP 4.3.3, HTTP Authentication did not work using
Microsoft's IIS server with the CGI version of PHP due to a limitation of
IIS ..."
This seems to be a minor bug in PHP concept...
PHP Authentication (Basic) works when :
1. PHP is running as apache module
2. safe_mode=off or safe_mode=on, but external authentication in Apache is
disabled ("PHP uses the presence of an AuthType directive to determine
whether external authentication is in effect")
At this time I do not now, how to help you ? Try report it to bugs ?

If You compile PHP there�s a parameter to use:

Check the output of phpinfo(); to see where it is expecting the file to be.

Use your system wide /tmp folder. I believe this is the default setting
in PHP, so it should Just Work (tm)

Hopefully not! Files in /tmp are deleted in most *NIX variants, this is
a _bad_ idea and the name of the folder pretty much tell You so...
Default path is /usr/local/lib

Start by _removing_ @ to get warnings?

You set $defaultfile, but tries to open $datafilename?
