PHP code displayed in browser
- by Drake
so, I'm working on a databases project, and i'm trying to code incrementally. the problem is, when i go to test the php in browser, it displays the php code after my use of "-". the html printing is displayed properly, which is AFTER the point where the - is.
here is the php:
<?php
function getGraphicNovel(){
include_once("./connect.php");
$db_connection = new mysqli($SERVER, $USERNAME, $PASSWORD, $DATABASE);
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
echo("Can't connect to MySQL Server. Error code: " . mysqli_connect_error());
return null;
}
$stmt = $db_connection->stmt_init();
$returnValue = "invalid";
if($stmt.prepare("select series from graphic_novel_main natural join graphic_novel_misc")) {
$stmt->execute();
$stmt->bind_result($series);
while ($stmt->fetch()) {
echo "<tr><td>" . $series . "</td></tr>";
}
$stmt->close();
}
$db_connection->close();
}
getGraphicNovel();
?>
here is a link to the page. hopefully it works for people outside the school's network.

if anyone knows why this is happening, your input would be great!
