Question

I was trying to load a php file in html such that the menu is loaded dynamically from an external file.Hence I used the code :

      <ul id="navlist">
<!-- Include header.php here -->
<?php include("header.php"); ?>
<!-- Normal HTML code begins here -->
</ul>
<br />

and

Based upon my research online ,I found that I will need to modify my .htaccess file to include these two lines

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .htm .html
AddHandler x-httpd-php .php .htm .html

To force the server to parse the html at the server level ,after doing that ,when I go to the site,I just see a directory listing as opposed to the site.

Any inputs would be great.

Thanks

Answer 1

You see the directory listing because you don’t have any “directory index” file.

You should also disable directory listing.

Some documentation for you
