.... Never use the editor to edit PHP code.

It's mainly for basic HTML creating. ALWAYS do the editing via Notepad or Wordpad on your computer. Much better to work off of.

Did you even read my post?? I tried writing in HTML in it and code just comes out all messed up

The WYSIWYG editor should only be used on html files.
You should get the plain edit box on php files.

Are you saying the wysiwyg editor is opening when you try to edit a php file?

The editor is for plain website HTML! Do not use it for template files, or any other files for that matter!

I read you wanted to add in php include and assumed you wanted some php code in there. Won't work.

Also don't try editing CSS files.

Do it off your computer, and upload. It's not going to work "correctly" off the web editor. I used to try it a few times and still came out a bit messed up so I went back to working off the comp, even if it's minor things.

To be honest, the plain text editor is just fine.

if you write your own html then upload the files with ftp.
only use the editor if you dont know html.

arudis:

I think understand what you are trying to say:

You want the options for using basic text editor OR WYSIWYG when editing an HTML file.

Also, I think I am getting this: You are trying to add HTML into a PHP file, using the script, but it isn't working. In order to insert HTML, you can't do it in a PHP script, you will need to create an HTML file, and upload it, then specify in the PHP to load the HTML file.

Also, I personally dislike the WYSIWYG HTML file editor; It seems so bugged up, and constantly getting script errors. If you are using basic HTML is should work fine. The PHP basic editor works very well, you should have no problems on that end.

But in quick review: HTML won't work in a PHP file.
