Re: [PHP] problem with front page files downloaded to dev machine OT
John Nichel [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] How about middle posting? I have noticed that usually when people say things like don't top post, the reasons provided for not doing it apply equally as much to bottom-posting. What they really maen is that they want us to snip the extraneous portions and then reply inline (middle posting), but they don't say that. I really, really feel that people would be more effective if they did not say things such as simply Please don't top post.. I think comments such as that, without explanation, is the type of thing that starts flames. It is entirely possible to be more reasonable. Sure it might require an extra minute of time, but the world would be so much nicer if people would do more things like that. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I'll keep it in case I run into the same problem for another reason. It turned out to be a problem with some code my client added in for gzip compression. Somehow it didn't work on my local machine. I commented it out and everything worked like a charm. So it wasn't the FrontPage extensions stuff. If I get around, I might try it with another php version to see if it works then. Anyway. Thanks to all for their input.

RE: [PHP] problem with front page files downloaded to dev machine OT
[snip] I downloaded files via FTP from a site published with FrontPage and active Front Page extensions. When I try to run them on my local machine, php files are not recognized and parsed by Apache. IE gives me the save to dialog and Mozilla displays binary garbage. Checking the FTP log, it says that they have been downloaded in ASCII mode. I even tried a backup on the machine and download as tar file with the same result. Any ideas what could cause the Apache php parser to not recognize this? I am running Apache 1.3.23 on W2K with PHP 4.3.4. [/snip] It is not a PHP problem. FrontPage and their extensions only run on M$ servers unless you are using an IIS imitator. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] problem with front page files downloaded to dev machine OT
I stripped out all the front page files and if I compare files frin a wirjubg ubstakk with WinMerge, it tells me that they are identical (at least all of the unmodified files). Can't find any invisible caracters with WinMerg in the not identical files. How does the php parser or Apache determine that these files are Frontpage and not plain php files? Any pointers to where I can find additional info would be very much appreciated. My google search didn't turn out anything useful but I might used the wrong keywords.
