When I put some PHP code in example.html, my PHP code does not show up in my browser (I use chrome).
In Chrome's dev tool the PHP tag
<?php include 'switch.php' ?>
becomes
<?-- include 'switch.php' -->
I want to know why this happens. That the PHP code gets commented out instead of getting processed.
I have Windows 7 with xampp.
Change page format from .html to .php . Then you can include php files !
Javascript and iframes are working too in php files IF they are not between <?php ?>

Set Up PHP on Your Own PC However, if your server does not support
PHP, you must:
install a web server install PHP install a database, such as MySQL The
official PHP website (PHP.net) has installation instructions for PHP:
http://php.net/manual/en/install.php
PHP Tutorial
HTML, CSS, PHP and JavaScript can be embedded with each other without any issue.
We can write any HTML, JavaScript or CSS code in PHP.
So, you can rename your .html file to .php.
And run this PHP on a web server e.g. WAMP server.
Just place code inside <?php ?> with file extension of .php
<?php
#php code
?>

Change the extension of your file like .html to .php and put your php code in it as your requirement.
Just change the format from .html to .php inserting <?php ?> is not essential it will work fine with out adding it.
i want to start php programming.
i use Dreamweaver IDE and WAMP Server.
when i run codes, the php codes, doesn't execute.
when my html code, run correctly.
for example when i use the following code:
<html>
<head>Hello</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello</h1>
<?php
echo("echoString");
?>
</body>
</html>
the "Hello" Message shows on the screen but "echoString" doesn't show.
my WAMP Server Installed and worked correctly.
i see the html output in my browser.
thanks
use the file with .php extension instead of .html like yourfilename.php and place the file in www folder , run it by going to
localhost/youfilename.php
I create a new HTML file for my project using Dreamweaver and i added a simple php code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<?php
echo "My first PHP script!";
?>
</body>
</html>
so far nothing is appearing while i open the file with google chrome and IE, any thoughts?
PHP has to be executed on the server. Upload it to a web server that supports PHP, or install your own web server locally such as WAMP. You then need to access the file with a URL rather than just opening it. A local URL will look like http://localhost/ or http://127.0.0.1/.
Your file also needs to have the extension .php if it contains PHP code. If you really want to use PHP inside a .html file, your web server will need to be set up specially to handle this.
PHP requires a webserver and an interpreter. Browsers cannot handle PHP on its own.
Look at XAMPP
A good idea to check if your php file is working properly is to load phpinfo function.
This function will show details about your PHP installation:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
If what you see on the screen is this php code with the entire opening and closing tags (), then you are not running the page with PHP.
So I've created a php webpage with a head section that links to some bootstrap css files and my custom css file. This webpage also has a foot division that links to the necessary jQuery and bootstrap JavaScript files. That's all fine and dandy: I know it works because when I launch this .php in firefox, I can see that Bootstrap has taken control and stylized the text. The problem occurs when I try to break this webpage up into components...
I've created a separate head.html and foot.html which include the same content as before they were broken up, and on the .php page I use the following include statements:
<?php include '../components/head.html'; ?>
<?php include '../components/foot.html'; ?>
Now when I launch the php from my browser, the links clearly haven't worked because the text is not styled. Upon choosing to "view source" of the .php, I see that it has not included the markup from head.html or foot.html, and instead I still see the literal <?php include '';> statements. What have I done wrong? I know the relative filepaths are correct, so perhaps it has something to do with the fact I'm trying to launch the php page locally? Perhaps the components should be .php instead of .html? I really don't know.
Additional info: Win7, tried using notepad++ because Dreamweaver keeps giving me FTP errors every time I ask to "preview in browser"
First you should have a webserver installed along with PHP. You may use xampp or wampp. If you simply open a php file in your browser then it will not execute the PHP statements instead will display the code as it is.
Except for not having a web server along with PHP installed in your system you have done nothing wrong as I see.
The head.html and foot.html can be html files and not .php files that would not be an issue till the file containing the include statment is .php file.
I want to use some php to make simple header/footer files for my webpages. I'm just getting started in web design and I am using Coffee Cup HTML Editor.
Problem is I have this line in my index.php file:
?php include(“includes/header.html”);?>
and nothing shows up even though my header.html file has a menu in it.
Do I need to install something on my machine before PHP code will show anything?
Syntax errors
Firstly, your code snippet contains a syntax error. The opening PHP tag should be <?php and not ?php. So your code should look like this:
<?php include('includes/header.html');?>
Install PHP
Secondly, you need to run PHP scripts on a PHP server like XAMPP for the code to actually be executed.
This assumes header.html either contains text or if it is PHP it echo()s its output.
