When working on the Internet, many operations are performed using scripts. Registration, logging into an account, sending messages and many other functions are implemented with their help. For them to work, the scripts must be uploaded to the site.
Instructions
Step 1
You can embed the script into an existing page, or load it separately - it all depends on what function it should perform. So, if the code displays the visitor's ip-address, then the script should be inserted into the page opened by the user. If you want to create, for example, a feedback form, then this will be an independent page with the *.php extension.
Step 2
Make sure your hosting supports PHP before uploading the script. If it's JavaScript, you don't need to check anything. You should know that the overwhelming majority of scripts are written in PHP, many can be found on the net for free. The script usually comes with readme.txt or install.txt files, which describe the intricacies of its installation and configuration.
Step 3
Let's say you need to insert a script on the site that opens a feedback form, it can be called sendmail.php. In this case, everything is very simple: go to the site control panel on your hosting and upload the script page to the site in the folder you need. Then paste the link to this script on a page from which the user can open the feedback form. Test the script by following the link created.
Step 4
Be careful what scripts you install. Many of them have vulnerabilities that allow a hacker to steal confidential data or gain complete control over a resource. Be sure to set the rights to read the file, only you should have access to it. In many cases, a hacker easily gains access to the text of the script and carefully examines it. Then, having found vulnerabilities, it uses them for hacking.
Step 5
If you need to embed a php script into an existing page, then a lot depends on its extension. When extended *.php, the inline script will work fine. If the extension of the page is *.html or *.htm, then the script will not run, since without creating special instructions such pages will not be checked for the presence of php scripts. The easiest way to get around this obstacle is to change the page extension to *.php. The page will work in the same way as before, while the built-in script will also work. Place the script itself on the page after the closing / body tag.
Step 6
Inserting JavaScript is still easier, just embed it into the page by wrapping it in the appropriate tags - the script text. You can move JavaScript into a separate file and include it by inserting a line into the page code. In this example, the script1.js script is located in the script folder. You can place it in any folder you like.
