I was trying to add a text file through an iframe in order for my lecture to be able to see and mark my php code. The problem is that 000web.com where I hosted my site does not allow txt files for security reasons.
As a work around I tried to place my php code inside a textarea tag and this still does not work. I would highly appreciate it if someone can assist me with this issue. Basically I want to display my php code inside a php page so that it can be viewed by a visitor.
Hello Vusumuzi . If I understood the only thing you like to do is have the PHP code in the content , so here are two alternative easy ways. There is always the option to use a programming languages code highlighter JavaScript browser text editor.
<?php
// First option
highlight_file("test.php");
// second option
$phpFileContents = file_get_contents("test.php");
$phpFileContents = htmlentities($phpFileContents);
$phpFileContents = str_replace("\n", "<br/>", $phpFileContents);
$phpFileContents = str_replace("\t", " ", $phpFileContents);
echo $phpFileContents;
?>
