when i started to learn php, i was worked on the file: http://www.dirac.org/p/crypto/index.php3
and life was good. then i noticed that php4 has a foreach construct, so i apt-get installed php4. this apt-get removed php3. fine. the php FAQ says the two can live side by side, but ok. i don't mind. at this point, apache seems to know what to do with .php files, but not .php3 (not surprised) nor .php4 (surprised) files. i made 3 copies of the same file: http://www.dirac.org/p/crypto/index.php http://www.dirac.org/p/crypto/index.php3 http://www.dirac.org/p/crypto/index.php4 my server knows what to do with the 1st file, but not the last 2 files. it's my understanding that /etc/apache/mime.types tells apache what modules handle which file types: application/x-httpd-php phtml pht php application/x-httpd-php-source phps application/x-httpd-php3 php3 application/x-httpd-php3-preprocessed php3p application/x-httpd-php4 php4 i don't mind renaming all my .php3 files to .php. it's better than having to rename them all to .php4. but i'd like to understand why i had to use .php3 for php3 but .php for php4. what exactly is the difference between application/x-httpd-php and application/x-httpd-php4 any idea why application/x-httpd-php4 seems to be an unknown type for my server? the module that gets loaded in httpd.conf is: LoadModule php4_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/libphp4.so pete _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
