Hi all,
Just a bit puzzled. I have some code that needs to be executed before the HTML tag. I have the code in a php file that I am trying to 'include'. Unfortunately this does not seem to work, but if I copy the actual code then it does work.
Can anyone explain why this should be please.
Thanks in advance, Kev Gray

Hi Axel, thank yu for replying but your answer does not solve my question. I am asking why a 'php include' does not work, but the insertion of the code does.
See the attached, does not work. Another post to show what does work.
Thanks.

This does work.
Hello Kev,
where has the file been stored?

The same folder as the web page.
Hey Kev,
Your include does not works because your php file has not been exported on the web server.
I suggest this one.
- To export a personal file to the web server (Pdf, html, doc, php ...etc) you need to do that with an HTML object.
- Configure an HTML object into your page to prepare to export your php file like below
With the file explorer go to choose your incl_process_new_meber.php file into the field and for the directory I suggest to leave 'files'. Click OK
The PHP file will be ready for export into the 'files' directory on the web server... This directory will be automatically created during export.
So now into your php code into your project you need to add the path to find your PHP file on the web server like this.
It should be OK !
