Re: php not executing in html

by default, all php scripts only execute on .php pages. You would have to tell apache that .html was actually a php page (in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf, look for .php). You would do something liket this: AddType application/x-httpd-php .html This is a security risk, because it lets everyone embed php in any document, and can cause problems. bug On Wed, 21 Jun 2000, Sean Mathews wrote: > Heya Guys > > Newbie question.
