Question

I am appending two files in my .htaccess file and write these lines:

php_value auto_append_file begin_caching.php
php_value auto_append_file end_caching.php

But it giving me internal server error.

Answer 1

A lot of web hosts prohibit you using auto_prepend_file in .htaccess as a security measure, so this is probably why you’re running into the 500 server error.

Why don’t you just use this in your PHP file(s):

include 'begin_caching.php';

// Main PHP content

include 'end_caching.php';
