Hi, Max:

 I have modified my code so that the page is like this:

<html>
<head>
<title>PHP Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>PHP Test</h1>
<p><b>An example of PHP in Action</b><br /></p>
<?php echo "hello world"; ?>

</body>
</html>

However, it is still not giving me anything.
Another odd thing is that I have added these lines to my httpd.conf file in the apache folder,

   AddType text/html php
   #AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .shtml
    AddType application/x-httpd-php-source phps

I still have no error message with the un-displayable content above, and therefore cannot call the phpinfo() page.
Could this be some other problems I have during the installation?

This may be totally off base... but try <?php echo "hello world"; ?>

Subject: [PHP-INSTALL] PHP Page Refuse to Display PHP content

Hi,

   I am trying to install PHP so that I can connect to MS SQL from the
PHP scripts.
   I have successfully installed Apache and brings me back a good page
with no errors, and tried to create a php page in the
usr/local/apache/htdocs folder. Here is the code of what is in this
page:

<html>
<head>
<title>PHP Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>PHP Test</h1>
<p><b>An example of PHP in Action</b><br /></p>
<? echo "Hello!";?>

</body>
</html>

The problem is that I do not see the execution of PHP anywhere on the
HTML. I have set the short_open_tag to off in the php.ini file, but I am
not sure what could be the problem that I could not see the execution of
the PHP page.

Can anyone please tell me what might have gone wrong?

Thanks for your help.

Alice
