General PHP Help
#1

First thank you to anyone that can help!

I have been hosting a website with a company for a while but have decided to try and move it to one of my own computers. But I cannot get my php to show correctly.

A simple example of what works on my current web host but does not work on my home computer:

Data.php

<?php $config['site_name'] = "MySite"; ?>

1.php

<?php include "data.php"; print $config['site_name']; ?> <?=$config["site_name"]?> <? print $config['site_name'];?>

This code only displays ‘Mysite’ from the first “print” and does nothing for the next two.

Can anyone help? What is my problem?

Thanks

<?php include "data.php"; print $config['site_name']; ?> <?=$config["site_name"]?> <? print $config['site_name'];?>

You are missing a ; after the <?=$config[“site_name”]

Try this:

<?php include "data.php"; print $config['site_name']; ?> <?= $config["site_name"]; ?> <? print $config['site_name']; ?>

still doesnt work, it seems to not want to do anything after i close the first set of <? ?>

#4

do you have error reporting turned on? if so check the logs and see what you are getting.

Did you not have Short Tags enabled?

That will do it :wink:

I thought you had been using short tags for the top part as well.
