Maybe I need to take a nap and look at this again. But, I swear that I copied everything correctly. I used a book and a tutorial from this site. I uploaded this and viewed it from my website, which runs the latest version of PHP and I also tried in locally while running XAMPP.
The problem is that the PHP isn't doing anything. Normally,(if I read right) if the require() didn't load, I'll get an error. I used on as my first code to see if it works or not. I didn't get an error at all and the content section loaded normally. Also, I thought that if you viewed the source code you would see HTML not php stuff.
I placed all the files in the root directory for my website. This maybe a question to email GoDaddy, but should I have uploaded them to the phpuploads folder, then redirected my includes?
Also, when I did it locally, I placed all the needed files in the htdocs folder.
