Sledge Wrote:Thanks -- I've done a bit more investigating and it looks like asp tags are disabled for my shared hosting, which I assume to be the problem. I wanted to test a site I've been working on for someone before uploading it to their hosting but it turns out the plugin works fine there so no show-stopper.
I might come back to you on this because I'm planning to use Get Simple on my own hosting at some point and I found I couldn't get the php calls to work for the gallery plug-in either BUT I think the first thing to do is bug my web host to get the asp tags supported.
Cheers, it's a great plug-in.
I think I remember a similar problem with ASP mentioned in the forum somewhere.
I don't really understand how this affects a PHP program, but would really like to know it - after all, if you uploaded the site, GetSimple (PHP) just reads the page from the disk (XML file) and replaces (% gallery %) with something else. How can any server side setting influence this, especially, if the resulting page contains exactly this string (% gallery %)???
There is a setting to enable ASP tags <% ... %> as an alternative to <?php ... ?> in PHP, but how this influences (% ... %), I can not imagine.
Anyway, I added the problem to the problem solving section in the first post. Thank you.
