    i followed their php instructions to a "T" (i use win 98). i browsed

      Have you edited your apache configuration file to include php and
      restarted apache? This assumes you are intending to use php as an apache
      module.

      My httpd.conf has
      LoadModule php4_module C:\FoxServ/php4/sapi/php4apache.dll
      # Loads the php module in apache; your path will probably be different

      AddType application/x-httpd-php .php4 .php .php3
      # Tells which file extensions should be parsed by php

      AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
      # Tells which file extension should show highlighted source of php
      # (optional)

      --
      Quod subigo farinam

      $email =~ s/oz$/au/o;
      A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
      Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
      A: Top-posting.

          and... copy

          php4apache.dll and php.ini in to place (I think the php4apache.dll can sit
          in c:\windows\ or c:\windows\syst em or the same folder that has your php.exe
          file and the php.ini file I think must (?) sit in c:\windows

              Re: PHP Win98 Install Problem

              i think my problem may the where the tutorial says to add...

              DocumentRoot "C:/Web"
              <Directory "C:/Web">

              to my apache config file.

              http://internetmaster.com/installtutorial/config_apache_for_php.htm


              i think that is a typo and should read with backward slashes like this...

              DocumentRoot "C:\Web"
              <Directory "C:\Web">

              i haven't updated my apache config file yet, but i think this may get me on my way.

              i hope so, anyway. ;-)
