How To Get String From Call To PHP Script?

Thu, Nov 15 2018 3:32 AM	Permanent Link
Frederick Chin	I have the following code in hello.php stored in the IIS directory. IIS is listening at port 8084. <html> <head> <title>PHP Test</title> </head> <body> <?php echo '<p>Hello World</p>'; ?> </body> </html> With a browser, I type localhost:8084/hello.php and I get "Hello World". In EWB, I use a TServerRequest and set the URL to "http://localhost:8084/hello.php" and in the OnComplete event of the TServerRequest, I have the following code:- showmessage(Request.ResponseContent.Text); When I execute the TServerRequest, I get a blank string. What am I doing wrong here? -- Frederick

D.C.	Hi Frederick, Try with this: <?php print 'Hello World'; ?> Let out all the html code and use only php. I don't remeber if the use of print instead of echo is mandatory but in all my php legacy code print is the way to send the output.

Frederick Chin	Hi D.C., /* Try with this: <?php print 'Hello World'; ?> Let out all the html code and use only php. I don't remeber if the use of print instead of echo is mandatory but in all my php legacy code print is the way to send the output. */ It seems that whether I use "echo" or "print", the string is not returned. However, I managed to solve the problem as follows:- 1. Enabled CORS in IIS (Not sure if that solved the problem) 2. Copied the EWB app to IIS's c:\inetpub\wwwroot directory (The hello.php file is in IIS's directory) 3. Changed the content folder for EWB server to IIS's c:\inetpub\wwwroot directory Now, when I call the EWB app from the web browser, "Hello World" is shown! I wish that EWB server supported PHP as an add-on. -- Frederick
