Adding PHP code in editor

[FNolan]

How would I go about adding PHP code to the HTML ? When I do it
changes it to a comment.

Example: <?php snippet /> becomes <!--? snippit /-->

[glazou]

What about trying a *valid* php processing instruction like <?php
blablabla?>
and not an invalid one like <?php snippet /> ?

Valid question Daniel. But when I save my text.html and then reopen it,
the php code becomes commented out.

<p>hello world<br>
<!--?php echo "hello world" ?--> </p>

Can this be fixed, or is there a reason for this? Based on past threads
on this topic I'm not aware that bluegriffen supporting this yet. I'm
using v1.2.1. Maybe I'm just doing something wrong...

Thanks much,
-Steve

Sorry for the typo but I did have it right in the editor. Instead of
giving a sacastic reply try helping, you might have more friends that
way.

That's what I was saying Steve, so I'll assume it's the software and
not something I did. Maybe the creator/creators will read this and
give us some insight into it.

There is no sarcasm at all in my answer and I'm sorry if you caught
it that way. I just cannot understand, from this side of the wire,
there was a typo in your message. I entirely relied on your message's
contents, and I suggest you take things less personally and
emotionally here.

"text.html" is for me not enough as a bug report. What's the format
of that document ? HTML4/XHTML1/HTML5/XHTML5 ? Your "<br>" seems
to indicate HTML4. In that case, strict or transitional ?

We could have a limitation in the parser for one of these html flavors,
I'll investigate as soon as I have your answer *and* I am back from
the current W3C meeting in the Bay Area.

If I took it wrong I apologize. That's the problem with the written
word, hard to tell how it's meant.

I think I figured out a work around. After adding the PHP code save
the HTML then open that in a HTML text editor, I use Crimson Editor.
Edit the PHP code so the syntax is right then save the file as a PHP
file and not an HTML. I did that and uploaded to my server and now the
PHP code works. Don't know why the BlueGriffon editor does what it
dose to the code.

I was liking BlueGriffon until I just discovered the PHP "comment out"
bug and came here checking to see if it was some config setting
causing the strange behavior. It's kind of weird, I would think it is
harder to comment out PHP snippets automatically for no reason rather
than to let them be.
