Parsing CSS as PHP with perch success (of sorts)
Good news, I managed to achieve what I was trying in this thread:
https://forum.grabaperch.com/forum/09-26-2016-parsing-css-javascript-as-php-and-editing-within-perch
I simply created a .htaccess file in my /css folder:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .css
AddHandler php-script .css
<FilesMatch "\.css$">
SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
Header set Content-type "text/css"
</FilesMatch>
Then in my .css files, I have the following:
<?php include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/perch/runtime.php');?>
<?php header("Content-type: text/css; charset: UTF-8");?>
<?php perch_content_create('css_content',array('template'=>'_css_content.html'));?>
<?php perch_content_custom('css_content');?>
I navigate to the page and enter css information in the css_content region in Perch and voila and it works! No need to change the file extension.
The only "issue" is, Perch places the CSS information in <pre></pre> tags:
<html><head></head><body><pre style="word-wrap: break-word; white-space: pre-wrap;"></pre></body></html>
So is there any reason why that is the case, and is there any way to output plain text?
What is in your template
_css_content.html?Hi Rachel,
This is my .html template:
I tried to add
striptags="true"but to no effecthttps://docs.grabaperch.com/templates/attributes/striptags/
Thank you
I don't think that's coming from Perch. How are you viewing this?
Hi Drew,
I am viewing the HTML via the Inspector in Chrome.
Try View Source, web inspector is showing you the DOM which is different.
