    A while ago I posted a question about how to get the administrative panel to display correctly, since a bunch of code got displayed in there, along with the page. So, failing to get any help here, I did some investigating and found out that ASP was the problem. Exifer, which is used by Plogger is written in ASP - and that's where the problem is. Apparently, most servers turn off the asp_tags function in php.ini by default for some reason, so you'd have to enable it to get rid of the ASP code (the code you see at the top of each page in the administrative panel). I haven't got a clue how to turn on the main function for this in the php.ini file and I'm not tempted to try. But I did get mine to work.

    In my gallery directory, I placed a .htaccess file with the following:

    # Override PHP settings. The first IfModule is
    # for Apache 1.3, the second for Apache 2.
    <IfModule mod_php4.c>
    php_value asp_tags 1
    </IfModule>
    <IfModule sapi_apache2.c>
    php_value asp_tags 1
    </IfModule>

    I don't even know if that's the right way to do it, but it worked ... Check your php info page to see if your asp_tags are set to on.

    Hope this helps someone.

    There are already a bunch of solutions regarding this, the more correct and straightforward is to fix the tags to proper PHP tags. I thought EXIFer used shorttags, not ASP tags, but if it works, it works (or shorttags might also be enabled by ASP tags).

    Edit: removed pretty much the whole offensive, off-topic part. If you'd like to take it up with me, please feel free at derek@plogger.org. Thanks to Bert for pointing at the foot in my mouth, and apologies to those it may or may not have offended.

    It's not that I disagree with what I said, but certainly the way I said it. And I feel rather badly that a small post regarding EXIFER was the unfortunate catalyst.
