Need advice with PHP using Adobe Dreamweaver CS3?

Question

OK, there's a Website where the page coding is entirely in PHP, some of it is used to display the site as HTML. When I place the code into Dreamweaver, it's blank, but of course if it's viewed on the Web, it shows HTML.

I need to edit the page code to add something to the site. How do I make PHP code look like HTML in Adobe Dreamweaver?

Answer 1

You won't see php in Dreamweaver. It has to be viewed on the server or on a testing server.

Answer 2

There are three views. Code/Split/Design.

After you open the file in DW, click on Code from  top left and you should see the source codes.

Answer 3

I don't really understand your question...

Click on the code tab and surround your PHP code with <?PHP ?> tags...

Or in the design mode, go to:

Insert Tag (Ctrl+E)

Click on PHP Tags, then choose scriplet

Click Insert.
