ip address doesnt support php

i am thinking about changing mysite domain

with only ip address use to browse mysite

so that i can use the domain for cheap package on other site

btw since i have already paid for 1 year

i want to just use ip address to browse mysite

but my hosts says ip address doesnt support php files

 

I am not very sure with that... but in my case I can view my site using ip address only...

 

Doesn't matter how you access the site: by FQDN domain name, or by IP. That is handled by DNS, which is a different server. The files served by the web server are ignorant of how they were addressed, and just serve. If you can do PHP now, you can do it later.

Only things I can think of:
1) they're moving you to a different server, which does not have PHP installed
2) they use host headers to serve virtual domains, in which case you're domain itself can not be served by IP, regardless of it is PHP, PERL, JSP, HTML, etc...

I'm leaning more towards number two being the case.

 

yeah you may be right

my host doesnt wants me to leave their hosting service

i suppose
