PHP Shorthands are not working in my Site

[ankokuflare]

I'm trying to include a php file

<?php include("menu.php"); ?>

from my host in my .htm webpage.
I got nothing. I also tried editing the htaccess as well.
It worked perfectly fine in my previous host,but why not in here?

the code is working fine
you can't use php code in an .htm file....you need to save your .htm as .php

Actually, PHP can be run in a .htm or .html file, but it requires editing of .htacess

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

Add the above to a .htaccess file, save it and *bingo*! (hopefully).

If you're unfamiliar with .htaccess files, create a new file named EXACTLY '.htaccess' (without the quotes, nothing before the period!). In it, put the above and save it to your root directory.

Stupid question... does your new host support php?

Simple enough to find out, because the code remains in the source code when you open the page.

Just try a simple echo statement.

either that, or try phpinfo();
