add script into html page

[peppi]

i have try'ed to put the script into a html page
it did work but not the way i want it to

the script has the background page wich is green still in it
i can change the color to black but that still does not work for me because then i have a big black spot next to the chat box


so my question is
how can i delete the page and keep the chatbox only
so this way i can implement it on a html page

so i just want the chatbox and not the whole page

here is a example of the page
link removed problem solved

and here is the reason why i want to extract just the chatbox
link removed problem solved

this has been resolved
should i post the how to here ?
or should i act as the rest of those who ask questions here ?

Hey Peppi

An html page is frozen in time and space. It cannot change until you edit it,and upload it, and then it is frozen in the new way.

A php page can change instantly - it uses a PHP engine to create, when users do things, or request data, new pages.

You can't put php pages into a html page - unless you use an i-frame (they are nasty) - or something like that. But why would you want to ??

you do not need an index.html. A browser will look for an index.html, then index.htm, and finally index.php - and it behaves perfectly.

It's important to note that a php file can act as an HTML file. Everything outside of <?php ?> will act like a normal HTML file. However, an HTML file cannot do the same with php. This is simply because the php isn't parsed if the file's name is .htm/.html. The server doesn't know you want it processed.

Also, minor detail, but the browser actually doesn't look for index.html/index.htm/index.php... the server actually serves that file on root access. This is customizable, so some hosts might (for some dumb reason) have it set up not to do that.

All this said, I think peppi indicated the issue as resolved.

Also, minor detail, but the browser actually doesn't look for index.html/index.htm/index.php... the server actually serves that file on root access.

If using apache server those are the default page the server will serve even ISS6 and ISS7 will do that by default but php files in ISS6....

However, an HTML file cannot do the same with php. This is simply because the php isn't parsed if the file's name is .htm/.html. The server doesn't know you want it processed.

Now it is possible for apache to parse php script in html files, putting this in apache.conf file will allow to parse php in html files.

Code: Select all

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .phtml .html

also you can do it in .htacess and tell apache to do the same if you cannot edit the apache config files. file using the following directive.:

Code: Select all

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php .html .htm

That's a good point (on the parsing of html files)! I shouldn't have said possible... but rather than by default (as far as I'm aware) no server is set up to do so. You are definitely right though, it can be set to parse just about anything.
