I'm experimenting with Michel Fortin's PHP-Markdown library and am having some trouble getting it to work on my server.
I've uploaded the parser library files to my server in a /subfolder. My testmd.php file is one folder up. Currently, I'm using the code below to require_once the files, but my single test line of markdown (a link) is not getting parsed. Is there something else I need to do or include to get the PHP-markdown library working for an example like this?
testmd.php
<?php
require_once ('subfolder/Markdown.inc.php');
require_once ('subfolder/includetest.php');
?>
<html>
<body>
<?php
use \Michelf\Markdown;
$html = Markdown::defaultTransform('[Test](www.google.com)');
?>
</body>
</html>
In the code above, includetest.php is just a test include file to be sure I haven't made a mistake there. The file is included in the output, but the MD link is not. No errors appear, so the output looks like:
output
This is text from the includetest.php file.
Since I'm new to PHP, any help is greatly appreciated!
