RE: [PHP] PHP/Cold Fusion questions:

AFAIK, there are no web servers out there that will allow you to pass a single file through two separate parsing engines (i.e. PHP and CF) Apache won't and I don't believe IIS will do it either. So, from a web server standpoint, the server will either send a web page through the PHP parsing engine or the Cold Fusion parsing engine, but not both. So, I think the answer is the CF developers will have to completely redo the site in CF. Now, I do remember seeing some sort of CF-->PHP converter project over at SoureForge. (www.sf.net) However, I have no direct experience with the project, nor do I know how mature it is. hth --kurt > -----Original Message----- > From: SalvatoreJD [mailto:salvatorejd@hotmail.com] > Sent: Wednesday, July 25, 2001 10:32 AM > To: PHP-General > Subject: [PHP] PHP/Cold Fusion questions: > > > Hello...
