Php-MySQL-Apache with XAMPP

[yasmine]

Hi friends,
when we are using XAMPP, where we should write php scripts and where we should run it?
Please tell me soon.......

[code green]

Write them in htdocs and run them from localhost

Welcome yasmine!

I don't quite understand what you want, but I'll try.

XAMPP is an Apache Distribution for Linux, Solaris, Windows and Mac OS X. The package includes the Apache web server, MySQL, PHP, Perl, a FTP server and phpMyAdmin. I assume you have installed this package at your own PC.

When you want to run PHP scripts, you'll first have to develop them (write them) at your client in an editor of your choice. Then you 'upload' them or place them somewhere under the root of your server and run them via your browser, whereby the server url is http://localhost. So when you place your script TEST.PHP in a folder (under the web root) named TEST_FOLDER, you run your script by typing

http://localhost/test_folder/test.php

yah! I did it so. But, now i don't where to write php script and where to create db.
I wrote a script in textpad and stored it in htdocs as a.php. when I run it as "http://localhost/a.php" it shows the script as it is with the php tags.
Plz... tell me what to do......???

In the root folder of the XAMPP installation is xampp-control.exe.
Run this (just double click) to open the XAMPP Control Panel Application.
Here you can stop and start Apache, MySql FileZilla and Mercury.
Apache must be running, and probably MySql also

Hi Yasmine. What do you mean by the word write? Hope im correct with this..you can write/create a PHP script using Dreamweaver and for the database like MySQL there is a built in database manipulator in XAMMP the [B]phpMyAdmin[] or you can use SQLYog..
