Problem with web galleries

I have tried several times to create web galleries in Lightroom, but then I cannot access them after I upload them. I export it to a folder on my desktop, and then I upload it to the web via GoLive. In this latest case, I did a test with a folder named ''PSRTest''



The path SHOULD BE www.mainephoto.com/folios/PSRTest/index.html



When I try to access it on the web, I get this message:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/dabramso/mainephoto-www/folios/PSRTest/index.html on line 1



What does this mean?

Problem with web galleries
I had the same problem and FINALLY found a solution on the web.



Here's the page that describes the problem (see bottom of page):

The short answer is to create a .htaccess file in your web page directory and add the following line to it:



php_value short_open_tag Off



That's it - it just works!

Hi Jeff,



Thanks much.



But when I go to that web page, it has no content. The boilerplate stuff, like the links at the top, are there, but the content area is blank black.



Is this a site I need to register or pay for?



Dean

No it is a .Mac site and does not like direct links. Try
LR Extras and click on the FAQ Home tab and then FAQ-WEB.



Sorry for having to take the long route, but you can get there.



:)

Thanks. Okay, now I have to admit that I don't understand how to do Jeff's fix.



Can someone walk me through this. I don't know what it means to '' create a .htaccess file in your web page directory and add the following line to it: php_value short_open_tag Off ''

.htaccess first assumes you're on an Apache server. Are you?



To make the file, create a text file with the single line of text recommended above. Use Notepad or Text Edit -- a program that will save a simple text file (don't use Word). Save it on your computer and call it anything you want. If you name it .htaccess on your local machine and you're using a Mac, it will disappear (because any file name that starts with a period on UNIX is invisible).



Upload the file you made to your server. You can put it in your root directory because .htaccess files affect the directory they're in and all directories below it.



Rename the file .htaccess on the server.



You're done.
