xampp wordpress preview error

Post by marjwyatt »

I'm trying to preview php scripts on a local xampp install. My computer is using the Windows XP Professional SP3 operating system.

I get this error when I try to preview a PHP script:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function language_attributes() in C:\xampp\htdocs\wp\....

This is the line of code causing the error: <html <?php language_attributes(); ?>>

Wordpress defaults to English, and the application is running in my local development environment just fine so I'm certain this is not a wordpress issue.

I also know this isn't a a wordpress support forum nor an xampp forum, so I'm not asking for help with those tools but, as a wordpress website developer, I need to be able to see how things look as I'm working with the code.

It has been a couple weeks of (expletive-deletive) labor trying to get my development environment reinstated but I'm fairly certain this was working on my Vista computer, prior to the motherboard failure that caused me to have to a new computer. :roll:

I am using WeBuilder 2010 10.0.2.118

I've verified that the tool is looking for PHP in the Xampp folder on my hard drive. Is there some other trick?

As far as I know, it is not possible to preview other php files than index.php file in root folder of your wordpress installation.
In order to preview your file you can type localhost/yourptoject in preview URL field...
This is the way I am working. If somebody has better work setup - please enlighten me.

Thanks for your reply. It is probably "faulty memory" on my part, or wishful thinking. :)
