Apache Friends Support Forum

Hi, I am new to this board and I need help fast.

I installed xampp successfully on my localhost (windows XP) and works perfectly but I have a problem and thought it has something to do with configuring php.ini.

Here is the problem. when I include eg. <? include 'header.php' ?>, the header does not show up when I view it on localhost of my computer but when I upload to the server on my hosting plan it does show up. I need to see this as well as other included files for development purposes.

Please somebody help.

Thanks.

Hi,

Don't use shortopentags!

Use

Code: Select all

<?php include 'header.php'; ?>


instead of

Code: Select all

<? include 'header.php; ?>


Keywords: shortopentag

Wow! Stepke-DSL! That was fast. I never thought I can get a reply so fast and a valuable one too. I just did what you told me to do and Bingo!

It's working. And thank you very much. I owe you one.
