PHP source code? - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Is there a way that you can grab the PHP pages from a site before the php functions are run?

Only if the site is misconfigured in some way.

That's what I thought, but it was worth a shot if anyone know some kind of trick. Thanks

The only trick I know of is to append an 's' to the end of the URL. Sometimes developers leave symlinks to their source code floating around. For example:

http://www.djskaven.com/tools/makethumb.php
vs
http://www.djskaven.com/tools/makethumb.phps

I keep the source accessible so that it's easy to "send" it to people. It's also just handy to have around while debugging, so you don't have to leave your browser to look at the code quickly.

That's actually a great feature of php, in that it allows you to write sites that someone can't steal. Not that I'm accusing or anything
