[Express] PHP Errors - Help PLEASSEEE
Hi Guys
I’m trying to create a comment form in Freeway 5 Pro. I’ve downloaded the PHP Feedback Form and typed in all the settings as needed. However, when i try to post a comment on my uploaded website it just gives me code
I dont know code so well, so please help
website is www.oxygencard.co.uk
please go on the contact form and send a comment and then you can see the error i get (any errors should direct to the error page i created)
P.S the website is still under construction :-)
Thanks in advance guys

9 Sep 2010, 8:54 pmIt looks a lot like your server isn’t set up to run PHP. Normally that page of code would be busy doing things for you rather than just sitting there like that. Try this; 1. Visit this page http://www.freewayactions.com/code/?f=info.php and click on the Download file button 2. Take the file that was downloaded and FTP this file into your web space using an FTP application like (the free) CyberDuck (http://cyberduck.ch/ ) 3. Using your browser surf to the page you uploaded (http://www.oxygencard.co.uk/info.php for example) You should see a whole host of information about PHP on the page (a lot like this http://www.quadrahosting.com/software/phpinfo.html). If not, and you just see the same code you saw in step 1 then you need to speak with your web host and ask them if your account supports PHP and, assuming it does, to activate it for you.
Regards, Tim.

9 Sep 2010, 8:59 pmI haven’t had a chance to look, but have you correctly set up both an error and success page? And, does your hosting support php?

9 Sep 2010, 9:08 pmHi guys
thanks for your help
I’m hosting with 123-reg and their website says they support PHP but dont give instructions to activate it so i assume its activated.
Tim, thanks for the advice. I tried what you suggested and uploaded the file to:
http://www.oxygencard.co.uk/info.php
but again i just get code. I’ve emailed 123-reg and will let you know what they say
Again thanks for the advise guys
this is the first time ive ever used a help forum, so am pleasantly surprised at the quick responses and generosity in taking the time to help others

9 Sep 2010, 9:10 pmLooks like your server is not configured to use php and therefore is simply sending the script back as text. Unless you can enable this feature from whatever console your ISP has given you, you will need to talk to the ISP’s support staff to get the correct settings added into the Apache config file etc.

9 Sep 2010, 9:12 pmNo problem. I’ve used 123-reg for over ten years for domain names but never hosting. If your account supports it then the tech support team should be able to activate it for you. If you have access to an online control panel it may be worth looking there to see if you can activate this yourself. Regards, Tim.

9 Sep 2010, 9:14 pmHi - Great looking site! It appears to me that your page suffix is html. It should be php for the form to work. Made that mistake myself today and spent two hours tracking down the guilty party, only to discover it was me!!
Hope this helps Dick

9 Sep 2010, 9:20 pmNope, not with PHP Feedback Form. It can use a straight HTML page and the form is posted to the PHP page generated by the Action for processing.

9 Sep 2010, 9:33 pmhey
thanks for the advice Dick. i tried changing the extension to php but then when i tried clicking the link in my browser i just saw code again. I think it must be the no php activation issue. I will wait for the response from 123-reg and let you guys know what they say
cheers guys

9 Sep 2010, 9:54 pmHey Jafar - according to Walt the PHP Feedback form doesn’t need the php suffix on the page - so now I’m a bit stumped. I guess Support is the way to go!

11 Sep 2010, 11:27 pmHi Guys
Just wanted to let you know that 123-reg got back in touch and the problem was that i was on the starter pack, and only plus and upwards support php
upgraded the hosting, and 2 minutes later the php forms worked
Thanks again for all your help. Much appreciated
