Topic: DreamWeaver Include

Hell all
I am using DreamWeaver, and work in PHP.
Everything is going fantastic, but when I want to include a file, my whole page is disordered and I cannot see it as WYSIWUG.
My include code is :

<?php include "menu_province_eng.php" ?>

Can anyone tell me what the problem is?

Re: DreamWeaver Include

And when I upload that disordered file to the server, it is looking good,
But the problem is in DreamWeaver only, in WYSIWUG or design view.

Re: DreamWeaver Include

You'd need to install WAMP in order to get PHP to work on your computer.

Re: DreamWeaver Include

Dreamweaver has a tendancy to do it's own thing in Design View. You should only use Design View as a guideline and absolutely never use it to design in unless you want major headaches. If your code is showing up fine in all the browsers then there is no need to bother what Dreamweaver's Design View is showing you.

Re: DreamWeaver Include

If everything else is showing correctly in several different browsers, then your problem is only with Dreamweaver's Design View. Have your tried editing in Code View?

Re: DreamWeaver Include

Hi, Do this...

PHP Includes >> Don't worry about what DW is showing you >> If you need to test it locally (usually there is no need with simple includes) then download Wamp.

That may work because the "@" symbol disables errors... Personally, not the ideal way to deal with the situation.

Have you tried this format instead:

<?php include("menu_province_eng.php"); ?>
