I am relatively new to web-development and am encountering an issue using some inline

  • 0

I am relatively new to web-development and am encountering an issue using some inline PHP code.

The page is a JavaServer Page (.jsp) and I am trying to implement a JFormer form.

When I add my JFormer PHP code to my .jsp page, it just displays as plain-text and refuses to cooperate with me (even when using demo code from the site’s documentation). Is this because of some sort of incompatibility between using PHP on a .jsp page?

If that is the case, what are some work-around that I could use? Should I use an iframe?

I need to preserve the use of the .jsp page and would prefer very much to use JFormer, but if I have to I can toss it.

Example of something similar to what I am doing can be found at: http://www.jformer.com/documentation/getting-started/installation/

    JSP and PHP are both server-side languages. As such, all scripting in a given file must be processed by the required engines on the server to produce the necessary HTML output.

    I suppose it is possible to rig multiple engines inline to process first JSP, then PHP, but that seems cumbersome and error prone.

    Instead, consider using an iframe (as you suggested) or load the PHP content via an AJAX call.
