php script

[scoutt]

I have an html page that I can't use php in. php has to be in my cgi-bin folder

I can't call

<?
include file

?>

I read somewhere you can call it like this

<spript language=php>

</script>

does this work if I like use it for a counter or anything else.

I don't think you can use <script language="php">... That's client side code, and PHP is a server side parser.

[Wynd]

What about:

<script language="php" runat="server">
</script>

Listen to Wynd. He would know. He is a master of server side JavaScript...Yes JavaScript!

[scoutt]

I could do it that way as Wynd suggests or I also read that I could do it like this

<!--include "cgi-bin\file.php"-->

but I can't remeber how the inlcude is setup. I think I am missing something using it this way.

Well, depending on where the file that you are including is licated, you can use one of the following options:

For files located in the same, or a sub directory:

<!--#include file="whatever.php"-->

For files located in another directory or the root directory:

<!---#incude virtual="somedirectory/whatever.php"-->

Hope this helps!

thanks Russel, that did the trick. I knew it was something simple.
