You seem pretty keen on it. J

 

Frankly, this is off list, so I am not going to get into the debate. I have used PHP in the enterprise, but I’m a .NET developer now, and all this

“my interpreted/compiled language is better than yours” crap is just nonsense. I couldn’t give a damn what coldfusions’ user base is, or if it is larger than PHP5.

 I’d recommend PHP to anyone wanting to get into Object Oriented programming without their brains exploding!

 

A transition to a compiled language from there is relatively painless.

 

Most of the users of this list are either struggling with web standards and accessibility and CSS or they already know their stuff (you know who you are) and want to help those who are struggling.

 

This doesn’t help solve the problem the original poster had.

 

If he hasn’t given up yet!

 

Peter

BTW surely you are not suggesting that Coldfusion is a serious
competitor for PHP5? - not one for this list though? :-)

a serious competitor? haha
php wont catch up to coldfusions user base for a long time and that probably wont happen at all unless php takes on an underlying structure from either java or .net.
last stats i saw cfm was pretty far infront
an quite honestly the only real reason i have heard anyone say they dont use cfm is the cost and for most of us there really is no cost unless ur building an enterprised sized app then the $1200 is far a bargain in time saved programming and if it is a enterprised app it most likely wont be done in php anyway.
i dont see how u can compare php to cfm at all, especially not power wise now that cfm has a j2ee backbone and can run jsp tags right and has all that java power to run on not to mention all the new goodies in blackstone (flash forms, reporting, sms, 1 tag codes for pdf or flashpaper output, etc...)

so usually it comes down to basically ppl being severely under-informed about coldfusion.
not to mention cfm & flash run hand in hand together, whoo hoo

and u dont have to rely on someones cruddy programming and hacks for things such as amfphp when its built into cfm

but to each his own :)

If your host has set up Apache correctly, naming the file anything.php
should enable you to view it in your browser.

Do you have Apache installed on your development machine?
Does the file work there?
Have you got the same Apache version as your host?
Have you got the same version of PHP as your host?
Could you provide a link to the source code?
Have you tried posting to one of the excellent php forums - (eg
Sitepoint.com)

The chances are that your host is running Apache 1.3.xxxx with PHP4.xxxx

BTW surely you are not suggesting that Coldfusion is a serious
competitor for PHP5? - not one for this list though? :-)

Hope this helps

Peter

is the page titled index.php or default.php?
if so then u need to have the host set up your site to look for either
one by default and also flush the cash

u should also take a look at coldfusion ;)
