to include plogger on my webspace the first step I need to do is :

"This file must be processed through the PHP interpreter in order to be dynamic."

what am I doing wrong ..
this is the webpage:
http://www.jhchaos.be/Foto.php

this is the page's code:
<?php?>
<?php require("../Fotogallery/gallery.php"); ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Frameset//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-frameset.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<?php the_gallery_head(); ?>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Jeugdhuis Chaos - Zwijnaarde</title>

<style type="text/css">

</style></head>
<body>

<div align="center">
<table width="800" height="600" border="0">
<tr>
<td height="88"><div><img src="Images/background_01.jpg" width="800" height="88" alt="top" /></div></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td height="404" align="left" valign="top"><div class="scrollable">
<?php the_gallery(); ?>
</div></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td height="108"><div><img src="Images/background_03.jpg" alt="bottom_menu" width="800" height="108" border="0" usemap="#Map" /></div></td>
</tr>
</table>
<span class="style1"><br />

<map name="Map" id="Map">
<area shape="circle" coords="246,58,27" href="Home.html" target="_self" alt="Home" />
<area shape="circle" coords="431,57,27" href="Foto.html" target="_self" alt="Foto's" />

Just a few questions regarding your setup:

- Who is your webhost?
- Do they have php installed and running on your server?
- Is php safe_mode on or off?
- Are you on a Windows server or a Linux server?

The first line of the file (<?php?>) isn't necessary and can be removed. The php include for gallery.php should be the very first line in the page.

The path you have for the include at the top (<?php require("../Fotogallery/gallery.php"); ?>) would indicate that your Plogger install is in another directory above the directory that Foto.php resides in, but the URL for the page indicates that Foto.php is in the root of your website. Where is the Plogger directory in relation to this page - above it in the folder structure, or below it? If it is below it, you might try changing the path to <?php include("Fotogallery/gallery.php"); ?> to see if the gallery gets pulled into the page.

Note: I changed the php code from require to include to see if any of the code on that page is getting processed.

I would agree with dhdesign. If it were my guess, it is the require path to Plogger that is causing the problems (especially with "require" which stops the script if it returns false).

thx for the replys, I tried these changes but no effect
setup.. we had a php-website (joomla-based) on the same webspace/server that worked correctly. (so php-mysql is working)

indeed, the "../" needed to be removed, that' ok now
I changed require to include..
but still the webpage doesnt load

when I remove the part : <?php the_gallery_head(); ?>
the part untill <?php the_gallery(); ?> is shown

when I remove both tags (head/gallery) and only leave the include-part my webite displays,
without the gallery fcourse.

I just copy-pasted the code in the html-page and renamed it '.php' .. I do not use any php-interpreter (as the manual says)
according to me, that is not needed (lets say I don't know what program I need to use for that)

mredant,

Try this for your include:<?php include(dirname(__FILE__)."/Fotogallery/gallery.php"); ?>See if that works for you.

what is the difference in this case include(dirname(__FILE__). ?

The difference is how your server is set up. If your server allows relative paths (i.e. the include_path on your server variables is set to include the root folder), then:<?php include("Fotogallery/gallery.php"); ?>should work. However, if not:<?php include(dirname(__FILE__)."/Fotogallery/gallery.php"); ?>produces the full, absolute path of your server to allow the script to be accessed.
