SEP not working on this site? Can't Post
Hello Dave,

I have had only success with SEP but on a client's new website I can't make it work. The test page works fine. I have tried htm & php for his home page but the encoding doesn't work. I am wondering if the include is suspect?

<?php include_once "/home/3-web/39/cf/johnmawson.com.au/public/www/spambot-email-protector.php" ?>

Cheers - Rod

Hi Rod,

The include looks correct, I'm assuming you copied & pasted that from the spambot page itself? If so, that should be the right one.

I guessed the URL of your site, and it looks like you've got the code here:

http://johnmawson.com.au/index.htm

What happens if you rename that to .php? Spambot Email Protector won't work (without server tweaks) on a .htm page, it needs to be .php. I viewed the source of your file, and I was right -- php isn't being parsed on that page. Can you send me a .php link it's not working on?

Hello Donna,

There seems to be php gremlins at work Sly ...oh there is one of them now...grrrrrr. Anyway I gave my monitor and web editor a shake and they have fallen off!

When I changed the index.htm page to a php extension it didn't work. But this morning I use Save As to create a copy of the htm page saving it to a php extension, uploaded it and now it works.

I think when you looked at the home page I had encrypted the email with "web email cloaker".

So now I have two index pages on this site (not needed I know) as the index.php always shows up first. Why is that Donna? Do servers look for php before html?

Glad to hear it's working!

Web servers generally have an "order" that they look for index pages -- in your case, your server is set to look for index.php before index.html. :)
