Hi
Can a local PHP page be parsed using a remote installation of PHP?

In my opinion, NOPE coz PHP is a server side executed scripting language. You can write a PHP script on the remote installation which loads your local PHP page and then executes it but i have not tested it personally yet.

good luck -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

Yes, you can - the only program I know of that currently
supports this is Allaire's Homesite. In its settings it allows you to set an external server for your browser, so when you preview your page, it sends the information to the remote server, parses the PHP and then returns it to your browser.I did this at first but it became tiresome because it takes a little bit longer, and I have tons of different things to do. What I did to
combat this is install the free Apache server on my PC, install PHP
and mySQL, and now all I have to do is test it from my browser whenever I
want to preview something. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

If you are really desperate to do this then you could create a link
from file.phps to file.php on the remote server, then use a script on
the local server to grab the file.phps and then do something with it.
It does seem pretty pointless though. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --
