    Default Newie: How do I turn a HTML page into PHP

    Hi everyone,

    I'm brand new to site building. I'm building my own site after reading a "For Dummies" manual. Anyhow, I've created a nice website for a first timer; however, I would like to know how do I turn my site into a PHP site? It's brand new so it would not mess up any links etc. I would like a PHP site, so I could direct mobile traffic for a mobile version of my website. Any help is appreciate even if it's in informative website, etc. Thank you all for you assistance!

    Technically all you have to do is name the files with a php extension rather than html. Once you do that you can use php code inside the page as long as you put it inside php tags.

    Technically, hmmm - you also need a host that supports PHP.
