Template not working in my IE

[leoj]

I have IE as my browser. I downloaded the template from the stickied thread and I believe it is not working properly.
-Check = downloaded file
-Tac = added file (csshover support for IE)
-Bolt = unused and added file

In what way do you think it isn't working?

Can you be somewhat more specfic and then I can help you.

The .inc files that come with the zip file have things such as "The Header Goes Here" but they are not displayed on the web page even thought the template.css has include(header.inc) ! So can you help now?

Ok, I see what the situation is.

If you look at the code in template.html, you will see that the includes are php statements.

It is assumed that the site for which you would use these templates has php available.

You have just looked at the template.html file directly with IE and of course the php code that pulls in the other files hasn't been executed.

You need to have either a local php installation, for example WAMP, or a test area on a live server that you can use.

thanks. Are there any free servers that host PHP? Like maybe geocities?

[moojoo]

Free with PHP is going to be hard to find. Geocities is not one of them. There are a few but usually they have to approve your site and they generally have strict guidelines. http://www.ambitiouslemon.com/ is one of them.
