chelmich Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I admit, I have never done php before but I am trying. I have a VERY simple form. . . 2 questions, 3 possible responses to each question (radio buttons). I would eventually like to send this info to a database but for now I will settle for an email that is legible. I used the simple "mailto" function in the form and got the email but as you know it is hard to read so I tried my hand at php. . . My problem lies in that when I test the form but hitting the "submit" button, I get a page that shows all of my php coding. I thought it was me so I downloaded a trial version of a php code writing software. Guess what, same thing. Is this a server issue? I spoke with the man in charge of the server and he said it did support php. I have never dealt with servers so I don't know where to go from here. Thank you.

JAY6390 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Sounds like your server isn't parsing php scripts or you've not named the file with the correct extension (.php). Check with the server admin to see what file extension is needed exactly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oni-kun Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Almost all servers require the PHP code to be: [*]Within <?php ?> tags [*]Within a .php exension, NOT .html Also, It'd be much easier if you show us your current code you're working on in case you're making some obvious errors (this is a fairly straightforward project you're doing, so it's most likely an error there), just place them within tags.
