Re: Installing under IIS6.0

I've got PHP set up to the point where it will process files ending in .php, but I want to "blanket" the processing of PHP code under IIS in the same manner in which I blanket PHP code with Apache. If anyone has any suggestions, other than reading PHP's manual which I've read several times which does not cover this, I would greatly appreciate it.

I wrote a little 'hack' to mimic modrewrite for IIS. When you get a 404 error page in IIS, you get the URL of the originally requested page in the $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] variable. So by creating a custom 404 error page with this knowledge you can mimic the basic functionality of modrewrite: <?php /* Simple PHP script that imitates mod_rewrite for IIS 6.0 Set this script to be your 404 error document in the folder where you want mod_rewrite to be enabled Your rule can contain regular expressions in the Perl 5 syntax (PCRE). You can use references in your target ($1, $2, etc) to refer back to parts of your rule. */ $rule = "/(.*?)\/content\/([a-zA-Z0-9]+)\/([0-9]+)/m"; // Original URL that is typed in the browser $target = "/oilpowered.com/index.php?type=$2&id=$3"; // Redirect to the new URL. Only relative URLs! $qs = $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']; $url = substr( $qs, strpos( $qs, ";" )+1 ); // TODO: $page - preg_replace() in the if clause, to save one regexp? if( preg_match( $rule, $url ) > 0 ) { $page = preg_replace( $rule, $target, $url ); header( "Referer: " . $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] ); header( "Location: " . $page ); } ?> Hope this helps, Tjoek

Hello, and thanks for the reply, Tjoek - However, this really isn't what I'm looking for. I'm simply looking for a way to parse PHP code from within existing HTML pages, so that I can migrate a site from Apache to IIS6.0. Like I said, if I were using Apache, I would just add .html to my AddType directive, and call it good. Is it not this simple under IIS? Thanks -dant
