Is there a way to parse PHP code in guestbook templates?

Hi

I find that I need to parse some PHP code inside one of the templates, but although variables seem to work fine, it will consider anything within <?php ?> tags as comments, as though it had an .html extension or something. I had a look at what the actual php file looked like and I can see why it does this (because it's being stuck in during the parsing and of course the page is parsed once), but is there any way around this?

Thanks

by giving a file the .php extension you are telling the server to pass it to the PHP processor before sending it to the browser. The processor then looks for anything between <?php and ?>. The templates in the guestbook are turned into strings by the guestbook and so the templates are never sent to the processor. To put some php into the templates you will have to do the PHP in the script and have th results turned into a variable which you can then place in the template.

if you need to parse php to have it output in the page, you can put it in the main three files. index.php, addentry.php and comment.php.

Didn't I just say that?

yeah, but in non-tech speak lol

Pah.
