How to display PHP without running script

[Mark Gray]

Hi,

I have a page that basically just displays a directory listing of gif
files (along with displaying the file)..

http://gummibearheads.com/ign/icons/iconpage.php

In case you were wondering, they are avatars for a message board...

I want to be able to show visitors the php code if they want to do the
same thing. Its there a way to do this besides copying the file and
making it a text file?

Before you ask, I dont have any passwords or such listed in there...

Copy it to iconpage.phps (or make a symbolic link) and go to

http://yourserver/whatever.phps

NB: The web server must be properly configured to handle phps files.



Or you can use the highlight_file( ) function.

http://www.php.net/highlight_file

All the pages on the PHP site have a "Show source" link at the bottom.
You can copy the way they did it.

http://www.php.net/source.php?url=/index.php
