cant get php scripts to run on my web pages

[crazymazey]

i'm fairly new to php and abyss.
i know its probably something simple.
i,ve installed php to the word using the help in abyss.
but whenever i add a script in the webpage using
<?PHP include ("name of php script.php"); ?>
nothing happens i'm not sure if thats right and i'm not sure were i should put the php script.

please help as this is frustrating

i,ve got everything else working ok
including

myphpadmin
phpbb2
php advanced guestbook
nukephp

but cant seem to get this simple thing top work

Test that PHP works fine by using the script:

[Kent]

try <?PHP include ('name of php script.php'); ?> instead of <?PHP include ("name of php script.php"); ?> also remember that if the page your calling is not in the same dir as the page you want to embed this php page into you need to put the entire http://yoururl.com/pagefolder/whatever in the include statement... most windows installs of php make the include statement dig into the php/include/ folder rather than your web server folders.... hope this helps out a little. :roll:

i'm just testing with this simple script ip.php
as you can see if you visit http://crazymazey.kicks-ass.org/ip.php
the script works.i've put the ip.php script in the htdocs folder in the abyss directory. and i've tried to embed the following scripts into a webpage index.html to test it

<?PHP include ("http://crazymazey.kicks-ass.org/ip.php"); ?>

<?PHP include ('http://crazymazey.kicks-ass.org/ip.php'); ?>

<?PHP include ('ip.php'); ?>

<?PHP include ("ip.php"); ?>

but none seem to work.
i'm using frontpage.

i also did the script info.php
http://crazymazey.kicks-ass.org/info.php

and this works

i know this is something simple that i am missing but i'm lost.

If you embed some PHP code in a .html file, nothing will happen. The .html file is never processed by the PHP interpreter, it is directly sent to browser.

You should rename your index.html to be index.php in order to have the PHP commands processed.
