My php files & access

Hi
How can I code my password protected pages (.php) to allow
search engines access to help with page ranking etc?
Any help or link referals would be great.

Uh... If they're password protected, you don't want people
other than
those with passwords to get access, right?

Can't edit php files in dreamweaver, access to site root denied

Can anyone help me please?
I've recently purchased a Macbook Pro after my PCs failed on me and also had to get a Creative Suite Web Premium. I have always used Dreamweaver to edit my php files. In Windows XP, I had to run the programme to run as an Administrator to edit php files. Now I have not a clue how to do it on Mac! Each time I tried to save a php file, a dialog box appear stating: Access to Macintosh
HD:Library:Webserver:Documents:Untitled-1.php was denied

You shouldn't have to do that on the Mac or Windows. Only thing I could find that would suggest loading files from there is a tutorial by David. And although I would normally agree with him, keeping the files in a system library folder for a testing environment is really unnecessary. I'd recommend moving them into your /Users/{username}/Sites folder. There is already a modification to the apache server to recognize that as http://localhost/~{username}. Or install something like MAMP that is in the Applications folder.

How to restrict outside access to php files needed by a swf

hello all,
i have php files that my swf needs for database access that
i'd like to restrict access to so no one other than the swf can
gain access to for security reasons. seeking best practice for
this.
can't simply do an .htaccess redirect away from the directory
w/ the php in it since the swf client will also get redirected.
one way is to embed a key into the swf which gets POSTed to
the php file. if this key doesn't exist then the php file sends an
error message rather than executing. but then someone could crack
the swf and get the key. and if the swf retrieves the the key from
the server then there still must be an unprotected file for the swf
to get the key from.
another way is to .htaccess protect the folder with the php
files and allow the swf to authenticate. is this best? if so, how
to do this?
what's your thinking?
tia,
michael

Hi ,
Store the customer number in session. When a user pastes some other customer's virtual dir url then use request.getPathInfo() to get the URL .Parse the URL and compare the customer number in the URL with the session variable. If they do not match then redirect the user to an invalid access page.
Hope this helps.

Safari doesn't open PHP files

If i try to open a PHP file in safari, it shows the code. If the PHP file isn't local, for example, on a local website (using air sharing on my ipod touch and adding php files to it), it will download the file. If I open it there, it will only display the codes like it does on the original file on my mac. I'm trying to use wordpress but it doesn't work. Once I think i saw some of the page working (it was the login page and it was PHP). But i've tried everything i could do but it never worked again. Please help me! Thanks!

You don't open PHP files in Safari.
Safari doesn't know how to run PHP code so it just displays the file content.
You need to run them under a web server - the web server runs the code and outputs the appropriate content.
By default, on Mac OS X you start up the built-in web server (System Preferences -> Sharing -> Personal Web Sharing) and should place the files in /Library/WebServer/Documents/
You then access them in Safari via something like:
http://localhost/my.php

404 error when hit submit from php file for requested path E:\vise\jqproject\web\errorpages\403_error.htm

I have a php script that when I hit submit, it submits the form to another php file with a get command. This worked about a month ago, but this month it's having issues. This is what the relevant code looks like in the table php file. Running
table.php shows the table in the browser and has 404 errors when I hit submit.
table.php:
    <body>
        <h1> Visual Evaluation Entry Table </h1>
        <form method="get" action="visEupload.php">
    <table id="bigTable" border="1">

         </tr>
        </thead>
        <tbody>
            <tr name="MCBands" id="9214">
                
                
                
                
                
                <td><input name="bandY" ></td> 
                <td><input name="bandM" ></td> 
                <td><input name="bandC" ></td> 
                <td><input name="bandK" ></td>
                <td><input name="comment" ></td>
            </tr>
        </tbody>
    </table>
      <input id="submit" type="submit" class="list" name="submit" value="Submit To Database" >
       
       </form>
    </body>
The server is mapped so when we run it off of the server, we use the server ip address and my file name and skip the rest of the path, which works fine with the table.php file, so that mapping appears correct. When I run it off of the server (from my
desk) and hit submit it gives me a 404 file or directory not found. When I run it locally on the server, it's saying it can't find the file name, but it says the requested url is `http://localhost:80/errorpages/403_error.html.` Physical path: E:\vise\jqproject\web\errorpages\403_error.html.
The error message says the notification is from the MapRequestHandler of Module IIS Web Core. I'm not sure why the requested url/path isn't referring to visEupload.php.
(Running on the server) When I change the action in the table.php get to include the IP address, it's behaving weirdly:
Module IIS Web Core Notification MapRequestHandler Handler PHP53_via_FastCGI, Requested URL `
    http://localhost:80/13.141.xxx.xx/visEupload.php?bandy=xx&bandM=xx&bandc=hj&bandk=xx&comment=xx&submit=submit+to+database
physical path shows as E:\visE\jqproject\web\13.141.xxx.xx\visEupload.php
Login Method and user Anonymous.
When I change the url to just be
    localhost/viseUpload.php
it's getting HTTP Error 404 not found. Any ideas why it's not finding the visEupload.php file? It has the correct .php extension. In file properties it's a type php file with name visEupload.php.
I took a look at
[404 error][1] but I see my "allowUnlisted="true" in applicationHost.config. I'm not using sitefinity, though.
I'm not sure if something got over-written when we did a server windows update.
I know we were having a problem with get and post a couple months ago and we had to add them to the IIS Manager Handler Mappings somewhere, but don't remember where we added them to check. Since I tried directly accessing the visEupload.php without any
get (and commented out get code in the file) it should have worked if that was the issue.
We are running server 2008 R2 and I'm not sure which version of IIS it is.
In case it matters, this is the contents of the visEupload.php:
    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html lang="en" >
    <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8" />
        <title>Big Table</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <?php
        require_once( "../classes/class.OLAPdatabase.php");
        require_once( "../common/Session.php");
        $OLAPdb = new OLAPdatabase;
          handling of the get part is commented out
       ?>
    </body>
All I can think of is that when I access visEupload.php it's running from the get/action in table.php. This might be a different user running in the system. I tried changing visEupload.php file properties to have full control for IUSR and Internet
Guest Account. It already has full control for System, and me. Users have read & exeture and read permissions. Or maybe it's something that has to do with how the directory is mapped out. I'm not sure what could be affecting this, and
why the message said it can't find the path to 403_error.html.

URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration

My hosting company has made a server config change and my xslt pages have stopped working with the following error.
It says url file access is disabled but my phpinfo() still shows allow_url_fopen = on

I don't understand your use of the word 'class' in your reply - I am using php not asp.net.
The name of the file that you are trying to access is MM_XSLTransform.class.php. It is a PHP class created by Dreamweaver for the XSL Transformation server behavior.
The servers php is 5.2.11, as it has been for sometime, so I know that it previously worked with allow_url_fopen = on and allow_url_include = off
Judging from the error message, you are trying to include the file using a URL, rather than a file path:
Fatal error: require_once() [
function.require]: Failed opening required 'http://www.xxxxx.co.uk/includes/MM_XSLTransform/MM_XSLTransform.class.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php5') in

3
Change the URL to a file path:
require_once('/homepages/0/xxxx/htdocs/includes/MM_XSLTransform/MM_XSLTransform.class.php');
Is it possible for phpinfo() to show allow_url_fopen = on yet be actually off on the server?
No.
[Edited to correct name of server behavior]

Problem with OsCommerce : Safari just offers to download PHP files...

When browsing my oscommerce website, Safari doesn't jump from a page to another, but only offers to donwload PHP files.
I have to cancel several times to access other pages...
Any idea of the trouble?
Thanks.

What Mac OS X are you using? What version of Safari? What internet plug-ins? What version of Java?

Why Can't I Open PHP Files on My New Mac?

I can open them fine in Firefox or Explorer on both my PC and my iMac, but on my new Mac G5 it prompts me to save the file.
Most disturbing...

Well, needless to say, it dodn't work.
Lone and behold, I do not have a httpd.conf file anywhere on my mac.
AND
On top of it all, I hardly understand what anyone is telling me or why they're telling me it. I understand step by step, and this is where it drives me nuts because I DO follow step by step directions and they don't work!
Then people tell me to download all this software... They might as well recall Apache or OS 10 because if step by step directions can't be executed... Well, then it's not very good software.
FROM MACROMEDIA HELP FILES
Setup for Sample PHP Site
Macromedia Dreamweaver MX 2004 comes with sample PHP pages to let you build a small web application. This chapter describes one way to set up the sample application using Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) or Personal Web Server (PWS). For more information on these web servers, see Installing a Web Server. If you're using a different web server, see "Setting Up a Web Application" in Using Dreamweaver Help.
If you're a Macintosh user, you can either connect to a remote PHP server or develop PHP sites locally using the Apache web server and PHP application server installed with your operating system. For setup information, see the following websites:
• developer.apple.com/internet/macosx/php.html
• www.entropy.ch/software/macosx/
Setting up a web application is a three-step process. First, configure your system. Second, define a Dreamweaver site. Third, connect the application to your database. This setup guide follows this three-step process.
Configuring your system (PHP)
You must configure your system before you can run PHP pages on it. Specifically, you must make sure a web server and a PHP application server are installed and running on your system, then you must create a root folder for your PHP files.
Configuring your Macintosh system (PHP)
If you're a Macintosh user, you can run PHP pages on your computer using the Apache web server and PHP application server installed with your operating system. Configuring your system consists of making sure the web server and PHP application server are working, then creating a root folder for your PHP files.
Testing the PHP installation (Macintosh)
You can test the Apache web server and PHP application server on your Macintosh by running a test page.
However, before you can use the web server to serve PHP pages and content from MySQL databases, you must configure the server to work with PHP and MySQL. For information on this process, see www.macromedia.com/devnet/mx/dreamweaver/articles/php_macintosh.html.
To test the Apache web server and PHP application server:
1. Configure the server as described in the article on the Macromedia website.
2. In Dreamweaver or any text editor, create a plain text file and name it timetest.php.
3. In the file, enter the following code:
4. This page was created at
5. <?php echo date("h:i:s a", time()); ?>
6. on the computer running PHP.
7. This code displays the time the page was processed on the server.
8. Copy the file to the /Users/yourusername/Sites folder on your Macintosh.
9. This Sites folder is your personal root folder for the Apache web server.
10. In your web browser, enter the following URL and press Return:
11. http://localhost/~yourusername/timetest.php
The test page should open and display a time of day.
The specified time is known as dynamic content because it changes every time you request the page. Click your browser's Refresh button to generate a new page with a different time.
Note: Looking at the source code (View > View Source in Safari) will confirm that the page does not use any client-side JavaScript to achieve this effect.
If the page doesn't work as expected, check for the following possible errors:
• The file does not have a .php extension.
• The URL contains a typing mistake. Check for errors and make sure the filename is not followed by a slash, such as http://localhost/~yourusername/timetest.php/. Also make sure you included the tilde (~) before your user name.
• The page code contains a typing mistake.
• The Apache server is not running. Look in System Preferences, in the Sharing category, to see whether Personal Web Sharing is enabled.
After testing and testing the server software, create a root folder for your web application. (See Creating a root folder (Macintosh).)
Creating a root folder (Macintosh)
After the server software is installed, create a root folder for your web application on the Macintosh.
To create a root folder for your web application:
• Create a folder called MySampleApp in the /Users/yourusername/Sites folder.
• Apache will process any page in this folder or in any of its subfolders in response to an HTTP request from a web browser.
After configuring your system, you must define a Dreamweaver site. (See Defining a Dreamweaver site (PHP).)
Defining a Dreamweaver site (PHP)
After configuring your system, copy the sample files to a local folder and define a Dreamweaver site to manage the files.
Note: If you're a Macromedia HomeSite or ColdFusion Studio user, you may find it useful to think of a Dreamweaver site as being like a HomeSite or Studio project.
Copying the sample files
If you haven't already done so, copy the sample files from the Dreamweaver application folder to a folder on your hard disk.
To copy the sample files:
1. Create a new folder called Sites-Local in your user folder on your hard disk.
2. For example, create one of the following folders:
• C:\Documents and Setting\yourusername\My Documents\Sites-Local (Windows)
• /Users/yourusername/Documents/Sites-Local (Macintosh).
3. Note: On the Macintosh, there's a folder called Sites already in your user folder. Don't use that Sites folder as your local folder; the Sites folder is where you place your pages to make them publicly accessible when you're using the Macintosh as a web server.
4. Locate the GettingStarted folder in the Dreamweaver application folder on your hard disk.
5. If you installed Dreamweaver to its default location, the path to the folder is as follows:
• C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Dreamweaver MX 2004\Samples\GettingStarted\ (Windows)
• /Applications/Macromedia Dreamweaver MX 2004/Samples/GettingStarted (Macintosh)
6. Copy the GettingStarted folder into the Sites-Local folder.
After copying the GettingStarted folder, define the folder as a Dreamweaver local folder. (See Defining a local folder.)
Defining a local folder
After copying the GettingStarted folder, define the folder containing the PHP sample files as a Dreamweaver local folder.
To define the Dreamweaver local folder:
1. In Dreamweaver, select Site > Manage Sites. In the Manage Sites dialog box, click the New button, then select Site.
2. The Site Definition dialog box appears.
3. If the Basic tab is showing, click the Advanced tab.
4. In the Site Name text box, enter Trio-PHP.
5. The name identifies your site within Dreamweaver.
6. Click the folder icon next to the Local Root Folder text box, then browse to and select the folder (inside the GettingStarted folder) that contains the PHP sample files. The folder should be as follows:
• C:\Documents and Setting\yourusername\My Documents\Sites-Local\GettingStarted\ 4-Develop\php (Windows)
• /Users/yourusername/Documents/Sites-Local/GettingStarted/4-Develop/php (Macintosh)
Leave the Site Definition dialog box open. Next, define a web server folder as a Dreamweaver remote folder. (See Defining a remote folder.)
Defining a remote folder
After defining a local folder, define a web server folder as a Dreamweaver remote folder.
To define the Dreamweaver remote folder:
1. In the Advanced tab of the Site Definition dialog box, select Remote Info from the Category list.
2. The Remote Info screen appears.
3. In the Access pop-up menu, choose how you want to move your files to and from the server: across a local network (the Local/Network option) or using FTP.
4. Note: There are other options in the Access pop-up menu, but this chapter doesn't cover them. For information about them, see Using Dreamweaver Help.
5. Enter the path or FTP settings to the web server folder you created in Creating a root folder (Windows).
6. The folder may be on your hard disk or on a remote computer. Even if you created the folder on your hard disk, that folder is still considered to be the remote folder. The following example shows a possible Remote Folder path if you chose Local/Network access and your remote folder is on your Windows hard disk:
7. Remote Folder: C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\MySampleApp
8. On the Macintosh, the folder might be as follows:
9. Remote Folder: /Users/yourusername/Sites/MySampleApp
10. For more information on FTP, see "Setting Remote Info options for FTP access" in Using Dreamweaver Help.
Leave the Site Definition dialog box open. Next, define a folder to process dynamic pages. (See Specifying where dynamic pages can be processed (PHP).)
Specifying where dynamic pages can be processed (PHP)
After defining the Dreamweaver remote folder, specify a folder to process dynamic pages. Dreamweaver uses this folder to display dynamic pages and connect to databases while you're developing your application.
To specify the folder to process dynamic pages:
1. In the advanced Site Definition dialog box, click Testing Server in the Category list.
2. The Testing Server screen appears. Dreamweaver needs the services of a testing server to generate and display dynamic content while you work. The testing server can be your local computer, a development server, a staging server, or a production server, as long as it can process PHP pages. In many situations, including setting up for the Trio site, you can use the same settings as the Remote Info category (see Defining a remote folder) because they point to a server capable of processing PHP pages.
3. Select PHP MySQL from the Server Model pop-up menu.
4. In the Access pop-up menu, select the same method (Local/Network or FTP) you specified for accessing your remote folder.
5. Dreamweaver enters the settings you specified in the Remote Info category. Leave the settings unchanged.
6. In the URL Prefix text box, enter the root URL you would enter in a web browser to request a page in your web application.
7. To display live data in your pages while you work, Dreamweaver creates a temporary file, copies it to the website's root folder, and attempts to request it using the URL prefix.
8. Dreamweaver makes a best guess at the URL prefix based on the information you provided in the Site Definition dialog box. However, the suggested URL prefix may be incorrect. Correct or enter a new URL prefix if the suggestion in Dreamweaver is incorrect. For more information, see "About the URL prefix" in Dreamweaver Help (Help > Using Dreamweaver).
9. For the PHP sample content in Windows, the prefix should be as follows:
10. URL Prefix: http://localhost/MySampleApp/
11. On the Macintosh, the prefix should be as follows:
12. URL Prefix: http://localhost/~yourusername/MySampleApp/
13. Tip: The URL prefix should always specify a directory, rather than a particular page on the site. Also, be sure to use the same capitalization you used when you created the folder.
14. Click OK to define the site and dismiss the Site Definition dialog box, then click Done to dismiss the Manage Sites dialog box.
After specifying a folder to process dynamic pages, upload the sample files to the web server. (See Uploading the sample files.)
Uploading the sample files
After specifying a folder to process dynamic pages, upload the sample files to the web server. You must upload the files even if the web server is running on your local computer.
If you don't upload the files, features such as Live Data view and Preview in Browser may not work properly with dynamic pages. For example, image links might be broken in Live Data view because the image files are not on the server yet. Similarly, clicking a link to a detail page while previewing a master page in a browser will cause an error if the detail page is missing from the server.
To upload the samples files to the web server:
1. In the Files panel (Window > Files), select the root folder of the site in the Local View pane.
2. The root folder is the first folder in the list.
3. Click the blue Put Files arrow icon in the Files panel toolbar, and confirm that you want to upload the entire site.
4. Dreamweaver copies all the files to the web server folder you defined in Defining a remote folder.
The Dreamweaver site is now defined. The next step is to connect to the sample database installed with Dreamweaver. (See Connecting to the sample database (PHP).)
Connecting to the sample database (PHP)
During installation, Dreamweaver copies a SQL script to your hard disk. You can use this script to automatically create a sample MySQL database. This section describes how to create a connection to the sample database.
This section assumes you have installed and configured MySQL on your local or remote computer. To download and install the database system, visit the MySQL website at www.mysql.com.
Creating the MySQL database
The sample files for Dreamweaver MX 2004 include a SQL script capable of creating and populating a sample MySQL database.
Before starting, make sure MySQL is installed and configured on your local or remote computer. You can download the latest version from the MySQL website at www.mysql.com.
To create the sample MySQL database:
1. Copy the SQL script file, insert.sql, to an appropriate folder on the computer that has MySQL installed.
2. If you installed Dreamweaver to its default location, the path to the script file is as follows:
• C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Dreamweaver MX 2004\Samples\Database\insert.sql (Windows)
• /Applications/Macromedia Dreamweaver MX 2004/Samples/Database/insert.sql (Macintosh)
3. If the computer running MySQL is a Windows computer, copy the insert.sql script to MySql\Bin. If the computer running MySQL is a Macintosh, copy the insert.sql script to your Documents folder in your home folder.
4. On the computer that has MySQL installed, open a command prompt window (Windows) or a Terminal window (Macintosh).
• In Windows, you can open the command prompt by selecting Start > Programs > Command Prompt or Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.
• On the Macintosh, you can open a Terminal window by going to the Applications folder, opening the Utilities folder, and double-clicking Terminal.
5. (Windows only) Change to the mysql\bin directory by entering the following commands at the command prompt:
6. cd \
7. cd mysql\bin
8. Note: On the Macintosh, you should be able to run mysql from any directory; it should have been added to your path during installation of MySQL. If the following step doesn't work on the Macintosh, though, try typing /usr/local/bin/mysql instead of mysql.
9. Start the MySQL client by entering the following command:
10. mysql -uUser -pPassword
11. For example, if your MySQL user name (also known as an account name) and password are Tara and Telly3, then enter the following command:
12. mysql -uTara -pTelly3
13. If you don't have a password, omit the -p argument as follows:
14. mysql -uTara
15. If you didn't define a user name while configuring your MySQL installation, enter root as the user name, as follows:
16. mysql -uroot
17. The MySQL client's command prompt appears, as follows:
18. mysql>
19. Create a new database by entering the following command at the MySQL prompt:
20. mysql>CREATE DATABASE TrioMotors;[/quote]
Last login: Mon Mar 27 23:05:38 on ttyp1
Welcome to Darwin!
mac:~ albert$ mysql -uMonaco

[quote=macromedia help files]21. MySQL creates a new database, but it doesn't contain any tables or records yet.
22. Log out of the MySQL client by entering the following command at the prompt:
23. mysql>quit;
24. At the system command prompt, populate the new TrioMotors database in MySQL.
25. In Windows, use the following command:
26. mysql -uUser -pPassword TrioMotors < insert.sql
27. On the Macintosh, use the following command:
28. mysql -uUser -pPassword TrioMotors < ~/Documents/insert.sql
29. This command uses the insert.sql file to add tables and records to the TrioMotors database you created in step 5.
After creating the MySQL database, create a database connection to it in Dreamweaver. (See Creating a database connection.)[/quote]

File access/locking problems, most notably with AutoCAD

A number of sporadic problems of AutoCAD users who've been working away
suddenly not able to write to the file they've been working on. If
multiple people try to use the same Xrefs, often some will get that the
file is corrupted report by AutoCAD.
What is reproducible is one of the Xref problems and it has given us a
bit of a work around to keep working.
To Reproduce:
Start AutoCAD(2009), open a file with base(Xref)
Save the base (no change needed) without closing, and refresh
the base disappears from view, and when we look in the 'Xref Manager'
we see that the Base has a status of 'Needs Recovery'. This applies
even when multiple people had the Xref in read only view, that it is
now unavailable, but when the full drawing is shut down and reopened
by the one who had saved, the Xref is just fine.
Autosave is not triggering the problem.
This has been reproduced on the newest version of ACAD as well, just
slightly different wording of errors.
OES2 sp3 servers (in VMWare) with mostly XPsp3 clients but a few
Windows 7 ones as well. The clients mostly have the newest clients
installed, but there are some of the XP boxes with 4.91.4 still on
them.
Just migrated the main data volume from NetWare 6.5.8 to OES2 Linux and
immediately started having the problem. 100% of file access is via
NCP. no CIFS is configured, to the point we have cross-protocol-locks
set to 0 (Zero, i.e. Off).
I think I've been through every combination of file locking settings of
server vs workstation without any apparent change.
Still working out different tests to do to find what makes a
difference.
Observations that might just lead to clues toward the root cause:
- On NetWare, if a user left files open over night, we could still see
those being listed as opened in Monitor. Past history with these users
is that there was always several showing as open every night even when
we were sure they'd all been gone for hours. Now when we check the all
the volumes late in the evening, they've been showing no files open.
perhaps that is a clue to a problem in lock tracking.
- While still at OES2 sp2, the pilot team kept giving vague
descriptions of problems using ACAD against files on OES2, but those
all went away after applying SP3, so after 2 months of one small group
running ACAD against files stored on OES2-linux, we migrated the bulk
of the data as the last volume from a failing NetWare 6.5.8 cluster
(recreating SBDs was getting tiring).

Glad to hear that your (and our) customer's life became less complicated.
Keep up doing the good work !
Best regards

Hi Hans,
i have just helped a customer to migrate their data from NW65SP8 to OES2SP3 and hit the same problem with the CAD group using AutoCAD 2004 on Windows XP with NC491SP3 + some Postpatches
Do we have a release date for the next OES2 SP3 Scheduled Maintenace Patch?
The last available is from May and has been apparently released the 31st of May.
Do we have a chance to get the ftf in someway?
Many thanks in advance and best regards,

Best way to load a php file

Hi, in my flex application I need to load some php files and get the results from these files. I have been using HTTPService and it works just fine. But, now I need to load a php file, get the result and stay in the same function where the file was loaded.
for instance:
var php:HTTPService=new HTTPService();
php.url="server.com/file.php";
php.send()
Alert.show(String(php.lastResult));
But this of course won't work because send() sends you to the event handler but I need to stay in the same function.
Is urlloader better for this case and how to use it please if yes .
Thanks

If you want to use one of your variables used on the function, you
can declare them class members (private, protected or public) and then you
can access your variables from the function that handle the success event.

Why this site used php files in all the pages?

Hola
I download my friend's site and ALL the pages are in a folder with the file name index.php ... WHY?
Example;
Name of folder; gallery
Inside this folder, a file with the name index.php
Name of folder; contact
Inside this folder, a file with the name index.php
It has an "includes" folder with files for ;
header.php, footer.php, content.php and functions.php
and so on.
Now, this site has ONLY 7 pages, it's not like it's a monster site, so
what is the purpose of using php in every single page?
I have to tell you that my friend has a program call CKeditor and CKfinder to
edited her website.
Not sure if this is the reason why this site has been coded all of it with php files.
I'm waiting impatiently for your responce

>Now, this site has ONLY 7 pages, it's not like it's a monster site, so
>what is the purpose of using php in every single page?
The reason for using php extension or not has absolutely nothing to do with the size of the site. If the site uses dynamic pages, then the page need a dynamic page extension. Even sites without dynamic pages often use .php in anticipation of using them so the file names won't need to be changed down the road.
Now, if your question is more about why they created separate directories for each page, it's probably so the url's can be accessed without including the file extension, Ex
example.com/contact
instead of
example.com/contact.php

How to open .php files on mac

when i tried to click to listen to an audio online, i get this message "the flip for mac plug-in needs your permission to run it".
Then i clicked "run" and get this:
"Track.php
QuickTime Player can't open "track.php" because the movie's file format isn't recognized.
To see if additional software is available that will enable QuickTime Player to open the movie, click Tell Me More."
Thanks.

What am I massing here? A .php file is not a movie or sound file. It's script (text I believe). It's on the server. Even if you downloaded it you couldn't do anything with it other than steer at the code (text). Wiki has as good a definition as any as to what php files are.
I would assume that when you click on a php link on a web site it cause code on the server to do what is instructed by that script. If it's to play a movie or sound or whatever that that is what the script is instructing the server to do.
If you clicked on a link and got the error you saw in your first post then there is a problem with that web page's html (another scripting language) and it's access to executing the .php file.
Some references:
Learn PHP - A Beginner's Guide to PHP Programing
Your first PHP-enabled page
I guess the answer to your original question in the title of this thread -- how do you open .php files? -- you don't.

PHP files in symlinked directory being served as plain text

I've installed apache and PHP (with MySQL) following the instructions at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/LAMP
Everything seems to be working OK - I can view files in /svr/http by navigating to http://localhost, and PHP files in that location or in physical subdirectories off it are served correctly (with the PHP being executed and the expected HTML being sent to the browser)
The problem is with a website which I have in my home directory. I have created a symlink in /svr/http to this directory, and I added the http user to the users group, and I set my home folder to allow group access with chmod 750 /home/myusername. Apache can now access the files, and serves HTML etc correctly.
When I access a PHP file in the symlinked directory, it comes up as plaintext ie View Source shows the PHP source code unmodified.
I'm really stumped as to how this is happening! I can't find a clue as to what I may have missed here - could it be that PHP is running under a different user to apache or something like that? I believe PHP is running as an apache module not CGI, but I'm not used to the Arch way of setting up apache - I've had systems where the web root is at /var/www by default or sometimes somewhere under /usr but to be honest I've never encountered this /svr directory before!
I'd be glad of any help as I'm banging my head againsta wall here.
Edit: I've also set up an Alias and Directory in httpd.conf but this gets the exact same behaviour - ie all files come through as text

Problem was because Arch's default php.ini has short tags disabled by default.

Ccess PHP files (.ctp) in with Dreamweaver

Need to access PHP files (.ctp) in with Dreamweaver and SEO attributes. For example, want to "Insert" Meta Keywords. The files I am accessing have those fields "greyed-out" they are not available. Is there a special setup in Dreamwever to access download a website files programmed in Cake (.PHP)
