How to call external php file from html page? Renaming page from .html to
..php not suitable due many reasons. Modifying .htaccess file to make the PHP
executable on the .html pages also not suitable. Calling PHP script from an
external javascript not work:
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://www.domain.com/file.php"></script>
Calling from Iframe work, but its too ugly, I need specify width/height for
iframe, whereas php script need display html output without iframe
limitations.
<iframe src="http://www.domain.com/file.php" width="600"
height="300"></iframe>
I there some other method?

The web SERVER needs to know that it must hand the page over to a a php
interpreter rather than sending it as a load of source code.
Unless you reconfigure the web server, you are screwed.
But it seems you want to call php on a different machine that supports it.
Why not redirect the whole page to that server?
If I-frames don't work there is - gasp - plain frames...

Hi,
If you just want to call a PHP script every time your HTML page is
requested, you could do something like:
[HTML page]
<img src="http://www.example.com/yourphpscript.php">
That way that script is called exactly 1 time for each time the HTML
page is requested.
Alternatively use JavaScript to fetch an image, but that will fail of
course if JavaScript is turned off.
Pay attention to aggressive caching strategies by the browser to make
sure it is called every time.
(Maybe let the PHP script return a valid 1x1 image with appropriate
headers.)

Erwin Moller

I use cURL php script to extract html content from remote site and display
it on my html page, so need execute this php script from my html page.
Can you clarify about fetching an image with Javascript method?

Assuming an apache server, use a rewrite rule to have the "page name"
displayed as .html whilst executing a php file in the background.
A "page" does not have a "name" except that which is shown in the
browser. Many php or indeed other files may be used to create what is
seen as a "page" in a browser.

Well Dough, we don't know that, or do we?
Personally, I am not against "stealing" content at all, assuming the OP
gives credit to the real source.
(And many authors are happy to be quoted/referenced/etc).
But just in case you are right, I await the OP's response.

This *allowed* by resource owner, just to promote their products and
service, no any problems at all. Consider it as RSS feed, if you like(almost
same).

Works for me. :-)
And I don't feel like policing other people anyway.
Here is an example using JavaScript.
I would advise you to add some anti-caching approach like adding the
number of milliseconds since Unix Epoch (I added that in my example).
So try something like this:
<script type="text/javascript">
var myPHPScript = "http://www.example.com/myScript.php";
var milliSecSinceUE = (new Date()).getTime();
var myFakeImage = new Image();
myFakeImage.src = myFakeImage+"?nocache="+milliSecSinceUE;
</script>
In case your PHPscript had data in the URL already, eg:
http://www.example.com/myScript.php?article=34
You must change the ? in a &.
Also, I am polluting the global namespace with all the vars, some maybe
it's better to put it in a function if you care.

Erwin Moller

Giving credit is not enough, Erwin. You need permission to do it -
whether it is a web page, an RSS feed or anything else.

Well, if they allow it, I would expect them to make the data available
for you and others to use without having to scrape a web page. I would
suggest you ask them about it - it would be much easier than trying to
parse a page and have to change your code every time they change the page.

allowed, I can use RSS however, I can also convert any page to RSS feed with
online services, but this will have a different look, they will not doing
design for me, also consider creating huge table with multiple cells filled
with data and specs: it easier scrap this table and display it.
thanks.

Thank you for the help, Erwin. I tried script, but it not working for me.
Server log show info that "File not found":
File not found [/hsphere/local/home/domain/domain.com/eng/4ar/[object
HTMLImageElement]]
Hosting support said that this error definitely related to my javascript.
Thanks,
astral

Hi Astral,
That is because my code was not tested. ;-)
He is a better version:
<script type="text/javascript">
var myPHPScript = "http://www.example.com/myScript.php";
var milliSecSinceUE = (new Date()).getTime();
var myFakeImage = new Image();
myFakeImage.src = myPHPScript +"?nocache="+milliSecSinceUE;
</script>
(The last line was wrong.)
Hope that works for you.
Regards,
Erwin Moller

That's because there are problems in his script. If you want a
javascript solution (which is not the best), ask in a javascript newsgroup.
The best way to call a PHP file is from a .php file. If you don't want
to change the file extension (i.e. due to bookmarks other users have - a
very valid consideration), change your Apache configuration to redirect
example.html to example.php. More info in alt.apache.configuration.

Which is still not calling a PHP file from an html file - rather is is
using javascript (which may be disabled) to try to do something which
can more easily (and reliably) be done other ways.
Such as changing the Apache configuration to redirect the .html file to
a .php file and processing the .php file.

It is working. It is an ancient trick.
Add an alert to it so see what page is called.
You DID change http://www.example.org/myScript.php into something
sensible I presume??
<script type="text/javascript">
var myPHPScript = "http://www.example.org/myScript.php";
var milliSecSinceUE = (new Date()).getTime();
var myFakeImage = new Image();
alert (myPHPScript +"?nocache="+milliSecSinceUE);
myFakeImage.src = myPHPScript +"?nocache="+milliSecSinceUE;
</script>

Hi Astral,
Then what exactly isn't working?
(Assuming you are using Apache, and know where your accesslog is and
have sufficient rights) you can check in your accesslogs if the script
is called with something like:
tail -n 100 access_log | grep test.php
to see if the request arrived.

Hi,
script don't ecxhoes any output in page. I didn't find errors related to
script in access log. Perhaps this method to call script isn't supported?

You want the output of the PHP script to appear on your page?
That was totally unclear to me.
You'll need XMLHTTPRequest for that.
Not PHP.
Try a javascript newsgroup: --> comp.lang.javascript
Or for a quick introduction (that is not 100% correct):
http://www.w3schools.com/ajax/default.asp
Good luck.

No, I mean script parse html and should return results, not PHP script
appear on page.

Could you please write down *very* clearly what it is you want?
What should the PHP script do?
What should the clients browser do?
etc.
Thanks,

Hi,
well, the php script is a curl script that fetches and displays the content
of the external site (url defined in code) and should return parsed data
(echo $html) to the calling page inside a <div> tag. Thus when the request
data is returned to the calling page it contains the content of the external
site inside some div. PHP script itself works fine, so looking for way to
call it directly from the html page.
Regards,

Hi,
Use XMLHTTPRequest for that (Also known as AJAX).
Start by reading through the tutorial:
http://www.w3schools.com/ajax/default.asp
From here on I suggest you finish it in comp.lang.javascript.
This has clearly nothing to do with PHP anymore (which is working fine
as you claim).
One last question, if you don't mind:
I noticed a guy named Corvet in comp.lang.javascript asking the same
questions and posting the code I posted to you, even the first one with
a mistake in it.
Why are you astral here, and Corvet over there?

Maybe you should just load the php script into an <iframe>.
