I have a question. I am fairly new to all of this. I had to switch my website main index from .php to.html. In doing so all of my menu items are not coming up anymore. I believe it has to do with the statement below. My question is how do I change this statement to an html statement that looks up this file so that my meno items come up again.
<?php require("http://www.boonecountysports.com/includes/menu_drop_head.php"); ?> Changing to an html extension will render php code useless. Your server will only process php code or specifically <?php require("http://www.boonecountysports.com/includes/menu_drop_head.php"); ?> if the file has an extension of php. To make this work, use the php extension
You need to modify the .htaccess file as described in this answer: Using .htaccess to make all .html pages to run as .php files?
Create a .htaccess file at the root of your website and add this line:
[Apache2 @ Ubuntu/Debian: use this directive]
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm If your are running PHP as CGI (probably not the case), you should write instead:
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .html .htm
It depends on the contents of included php file; if the file has html and javascript ONLY you can use that code in the place where the php file included
