Including PHP
Posted: Tue Aug 25, 2009 1:20 am
Hi,
I have a PHP script for querying Amazon and displaying the results. It works fine on its own.
If i put it into a UDT it's unhappy until i move all the functions to the beginning of the script. Once i do that it mostly works except i get an error like this:
If i leave the script alone and place it between {php} tags, i get an error like this:
But it's not an invalid argument since it works outside of CMSMS.
I'd be happy to solve this, but mostly i'd like to get a general handle on what i should or should not try to do with PHP inside of CMSMS, and what sort of guidelines i should follow. I put a lot of work into modifying this script, assuming that when i was done i'd just make a UDT and be done with it. Is that not a generally safe assumption?
Thanks,
