 Post subject: Trying to parse other filetypes as php

Sorry if I'm posting this to the wrong place - I'm trying to parse a .m3u file as php. I know that's kinda odd, but I've been able to do something like this on own home server. Basically, I want users to be able to download a dynamically-generated m3u file from my site. My understanding is admittedly vague here, but I thought I could make a .htaccess file with:

Code:
AddType application/x-httpd-php m3u


and put <?php tags in a .m3u file. That didn't work, so I'm wondering if I'm totally on the wrong track, or if I can achieve that affect this way. Any help would be appreciated - thanks!

I'm sorry, but i'm not familiar with this issue, and i can't help your further. Probably you can do this on your computer, because you are using specially designed for this software.

Well, I figured out another way to do what I was trying. You can use the php header function to create files on the fly for users to open/save like this:

Code:
<?php
header('Content-type: audio/x-mpegurl');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="test.m3u"');
echo "http://radio.hbr1.com:19800/trance.ogg";
?>


That turned out to be easier and does what I was trying to do, so thanks anyway.
