PHP code in the source

I currently have PHP 5 setup on Win x64 with Apache 2.0 and I'm having a problem with one page. No matter how simple I make the PHP code (eg.

Code: Select all

echo "Hello World";
), nothing ever executes. Further more, when I open the source code for the page I can see the php code in the source. Obviously there are some problems there... Does anyone have some advice to offer? Perhaps some settings to check in Apache? Incidentally, I do have an index.php page that works fine, just not any other page I try to setup. Thanks in advance.

are you sure you have your php code wrapped with php tags like this:

Code: Select all

<?php
  echo "Hello World";
?>

I would guess that you don't have the module loaded for php.

you need a line like this in your httpd.conf

Code: Select all

LoadModule php5_module /PHP/php5apache2.dll
you also need to make sure you have your extensions mapped for php.
something like this:

Code: Select all

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
edit: I didn't read carefully enough...it's only one page that's not working 8O doh!

What are you using to edit your .php files? Some editors, especially on Macs, insert characters that PHP doesn't like.

I use PHPEdit 1.0. Haven't had any problems with it in the past (been using it exclusively for about 7-8 months).

Do the files have execute permissions?
