AFAIK you can't run a php file directly, or you need to add #!/bin/php or
something to the first line, but you can run it with
php ../uri.php
but i suggest you to run it from a webserver like apache.

*if you don't have it, i can give you a few MB to try PHP out

 Hi all,

Dave,

I am attempting to use html for learning purposes. My goal is to begin
working on a website.

Tijnema,

I tried the below and got the following errors. I can't imagine the error
on line 3 is a tag issue.

Jonathan

[EMAIL PROTECTED] cgi-bin]# ./uri.php
./uri.php: line 2: ?php: No such file or directory
./uri.php: line 3: syntax error near unexpected token `"D"'
./uri.php: line 3: `$d=date("D");'
[EMAIL PROTECTED] cgi-bin]# vi uri.php
[EMAIL PROTECTED]  cgi-bin]# vi uri.php

<?php
$d=date("D");
if ($d=="Fri")
  echo "Have a nice weekend!";
else
  echo "Have a nice day!";
?>

If you are running that from the command line, why do you need html? Not
sure why you're doing that.
