Free Site and PHP

Beginners - Learning PHP
#1

Ok, so I wrote my own website with webs.com.
I do not wish to get a premium account, so i did it all by hand with webs HTML Only Mode.
So I got everything else done, but I would like to have a system where you must be a member to view certain pages, as well as signing up for tryouts,
I would also like to have a members list so members can other Xbox Live memebrs do not have to add each other, they can jsut hit up the members list,

to give an idea of what the site is

undeadpr0s.webs.com

(Sorry if this is advertising, I am not trying to advertise but just explain this)

I would liek to know if it is possible to use programs to host the PHP . . . idk how to explain it, but like is it possible for me to have the files on my comp, and say someone goes to the link above, and logs in using login.php

is there anyway for the programs that i am using would be able to host the PHP and make it show up on the site ?

Hi there,

Your best option is (assuming Webs don’t allow PHP without premium package) to host the PHP on a free hosting site (000webhost,x10hosting and more - just search Google and check they have PHP support). Then in your webs page, add an iframe with src=“http://myhostingsite.com/myphpfile.php”

ok, but even if i use an iframe, would i be able to use iframes with my own php hosting ? or do i need a site with php hosting ?

#4

Erm, sorry to sound useless, but after reading your post at least 5 times I still don’t know what you are referring to / asking / saying … ?

#5

ok, to explain betyter (cause i know i explained it horribly)
is it possible to use 3rd party programs, on my computer, to host PHP that i upload to a non PHP supported sub-domain, that will be accessible by anyone online,
IE Login, registration, members list, etc

I believe so yes, but it would require your PC to be on at all times for it to function. It would basically involve you installing a DNS server (DynDNS is quite good), which means you can choose a subdomain of a site and it will look up your DNS server and get the files from your PC. I can’t provide much more information in that area I’m afraid, but if you google setting up a DNS server, or look around the DynDNS site you may find more information that can help.
