PHP coders out there?

[Kreskin]

Any know php coding?

An invision board modification allows one to integrate a board's latest posts into a site's main webpage. I have uploaded everything I need to make it work except I don't understand the imbedding of the code into the main page. The writer of the script says imbed . Does that make any sense? Shouldn't it be something like <?php #include virtual="/yourmainforumdirectory/latest_posts.php";?>

The guy who wrote the mod doesn't respond to anyone's questions but from comments seen the mod works for some. Frankly, I'm a complete noob with PHP. If anyone knows this stuff I would appreciate some advice.

Thanks

Hey Kreskin,

It would look like:

<?php include("/path/to/forums/file.php"); ?>

Your host must support php and in some cases, the file that you are including it in must end in the extension .php, or else it won't get parsed.

You can use

if its a non php file but you must specify in your .htaccess file:

AddType text/html .html
AddHandler server-parsed .html

(an example if your file is ending in html).
