Re: Intro to PHP question

Hi all, Dave, I am attempting to use html for learning purposes. My goal is to begin working on a website. Tijnema, I tried the below and got the following errors. I can't imagine the error on line 3 is a tag issue. Jonathan [root@ip-XXX-XXX-XX-XXX cgi-bin]# ./uri.php ./uri.php: line 2: ?php: No such file or directory ./uri.php: line 3: syntax error near unexpected token `"D"' ./uri.php: line 3: `$d=date("D");' [root@ip-XXX-XXX-XX-XXX cgi-bin]# vi uri.php [root@ip-XXX-XXX-XX-XXX cgi-bin]# vi uri.php <?php $d=date("D"); if ($d=="Fri") echo "Have a nice weekend!"; else echo "Have a nice day!"; ?> ----- Original Message ----- From: Dave Goodchild To: Tijnema !
