Hi there,
I have exhausted all methods I can find to fix this problem
,which is from the following php code from php 5 for dummies book, which I
doubled checked as well from their website,
<html>
<head>
<title>PHP Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>This is an HTML line
<?php
echo “<p>This is a PHP line</p>”;
Note the special quotes you're using here --- that's why. PHP
doesn't understand fancy quotes, only:
Single-quotes ( ' ), which PHP parses as a literal string.
Double-quotes ( " ), which PHP parses as a string to be
interpreted (such as the translation of variables).
Backticks ( ` ), which PHP uses to execute command-line code
(if permitted by system configuration).
Change your quotes to either single or double quotes and your
problems should vanish.
Well spotted Daniel.
I was just gonna say use this instead:
<head>
<title>php-info</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
</body>
Kind Regards,
Keith
