Im requiring some aid to include something in a php article. Anyone that can help feel free to PM or reply here.

Thanks if advance.

P.S.: Some mods are just uploaded and no installed.

Not that I am any good with php, to help you we would need more info, like what do you want to add to a article?  or you could read the Posting Guidelines Please!

I dont see how my Site info will help on this since its a simple php include in an article, thats why i posted this topic in Chit-Chat and not Support.

Edited my first post to fit your needs.

Missed a question: Im generating daily reports. Those daily reports are saved in a directory in the server root. In that directory i have an index.html which gives links to various html report files in that directory.

So far i was adding those reports in an iframe, but i would like to work on it some more and include them with php. Problem i have with that is that the links in the index.html are pointing after the article name.

This is the code i tried to use.

Code Select Expand


  /* If the script you are trying to include a file into is
       within a sub-folder of the web root, then include
       that folder in the path*/
    $dirName = dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);

    // If the including folder is sitting below the script, omit this part.

    /* Concatenate all the above values to set the includes
       folder in the path of php parser to find the scripts
       called with the include() function.*/
    ini_set('$dirName . 'raidreports/190409/');

    // After the above configuration, now you can call your scripts just by their name:
    include('index.html');

Inny, I've moved your topic to the support boards so that one of our code specialists may see it and be able to offer help.

Yeah i asked for PM support because its not TP specific (kinda), while i knew that someone else might need it, there are plenty of forums around that i can ask this but im more bonded with this one

In any case thanks.

I'm wondering about the use of include here. That function should be used with a php file. The function loads in the file and tries to execute it. There's nothing to execute in an html file.

What you can do is read the file into memory and then echo it out. For example, the file command reads the file and places it into an array. Then it would just be a matter of looping through with a foreach and echo-ing the line.

Also, I'm not familiar with the ini_set function, but in reading about it, I don't think that's what you want.

You might give this a try:

Code Select Expand


$dirName = dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
$fileName = '$dirName . 'raidreports/190409/';
$lines = file($fileName);
foreach ($lines as $line)
  echo $line;


You might still run into trouble if this is a complete html file, though, because you're going to have an extra head section and other stuff that shouldn't be in an article. I'm not sure if it'll cause any problems or not. Only one way to find out.

[Inny]

The above gives error on line 2.

The html file is complete yes. I guess any problem wont show up with iframe but it will with this method.

[IchBin]

$fileName = '$dirName . 'raidreports/190409/';

Should be:
$fileName = $dirName . 'raidreports/190409/';

[Inny]

becomes an empty article this way.

Only way i could make it work was with include, just somehow need to find a way to make the links right
