I have a site using a few files with the filenames in ths format "_inc.somename.php" and for some reason when i try and use them on Uniserver the just show up as blank. Is this a known issue / is there a fix or work around for this?

If your pages work on other servers and fail on Uniserver they probably use short open tags <? ?> use the long form <?php ?>

They use the long ones

 

This is the opening part of my index page

 

<?php

session_start();

error_reporting (E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);

 

$styleSheet = "stylee.css";

include ("include/config.php");

include ("include/function.php");

include ("include/function_homepage.php");

 

$hpInfo = "";

getHomepageInfo($hpInfo);

require_once ("_inc.header.php");

$userID = $_SESSION['userID'];

 

?>

 

if i go directly to _inc.header.php it shows blank too and that uses full <?php tags too

Stop the servers.

From the tray menu switch php.ini to development

Restart server

 

Try this code:

Save both files to folder UniServer\www

File index.php

<?php
 //Main test file index.php
 echo "<h1>Test 1</h1>";
 require_once ("_inc.header.php");
?>

 

File _inc.header.php

<?php

  //Include file _inc.header.php
 echo "<h1>Hello World!</h1>";
?>

 

Start servers

Type following into browser address bar

http://localhost/index.php

 

What errors are reported?

That works okay, must be a problem in my files coding then, i thought since it worked on my web server and not uniserver it was something to do with that. Ill check it all over and report back if i still have problems, thanks

It was a <? in my _inc.header.php. Was an include at the bottom of it what i missed, thanks for your help

So Coral called it right to begin with

Coral: 1, bad php code: 0
