[Nfbmo] Web Site Includes Not Being Loaded

[Matt Sievert]

Peter,

Can explain what "Hypertext Preprocessing" entails?

The "PHP" I use for includes in websites is an acronym for "Personal Home Page" which is a scripting language developed in PERL for use on web sites.

The PHP rendered web pages I have worked with are compiled using a "JIT"(Just in time) compiler ran "server-side" and do not rely on a "client-side" addon to function properly in a user's web browser.

Is there a specifc client-side component included in these php includes that is causing the problem?

Good afternoon everyone,

    This is to alert you to a problem on affiliate Web sites that use PHP 
includes to display content on multiple site pages. These sites use this 
technology to make updating of content site-wide quicker and easier for the 
site administrator to maintain. The technology used is called Hypertext 
Preprocessor more commonly called PHP.

    There appears to be a problem with these includes not being loaded when 
the page is displayed due to PHP not being enabled either on the client end 
or on the server. The effected page areas are the navigation links that 
appear on all site pages.
    When upgrading Web sites or the hardware on which they run you can 
always expect the unexpected. Prior to the server upgrade this was only 
happening on some Web site home pages. Now it's happening site-wide on Web 
sites incorporating PHP components such as the includes that display the 
site navigation menus. Bruce Timberlake, David Andrews, and I will 
troubleshoot this problem as quickly as possible and will let everyone know 
when the situation has been resolved. Some of you have sent me updates for 
your affiliate Web sites. I'll get these on server as soon as I can, but we 
need to prioritize issues to address. Before you can find particular site 
content you must be able to get around the Web site. Fixing the navigation 
menu will make that possible. At the moment this is job one. Thanks for 
everyone's patience and understanding. Once the ducks are in flying 
formation and everything on the new equipment is working correctly it will 
serve us for many years to come. Best wishes from Mary and I for a great 
weekend and a happy Halloween.
