There are many solutions on the
Internet which involve adding a small amount of PHP code to an
HTML web page in order to provide additional features on the
page. Examples include adding a page view counter or showing
the current server time/date on your web page.
Adding PHP code to a web page normally means you have to
rename your web page to be a ".php" file instead of a ".htm"
file. While renaming a file is not difficult, it is hassle
because all links to the page have to be changed (so for
example, any links to page1.htm would need changing to link to
page1.php).
Php Activator offers an alternative solution, enabling php
code to be inserted into normal web pages. This means you can
insert PHP code into your web pages and leave them as ".htm"
or ".html" pages.
Php Activator also comes with some simple PHP code examples
that you can insert into your web pages to:
- show a page view counter
- show the visitors IP address
- show the current server time/date (useful if you have an
offer which starts or ends at a particular time - because your
visitors may be in a different time zone)
