| 1) read README or instructions 2a) open index.php, index.htm(l) that's the starting point or 2b) launch the stuff on your local webserver (<A HREF="http://localhost/some/phptriad/dir/">http://localhost/some/phptriad/dir/</a>) 3) right-click on main page shown -> name of script 4) open that script in any case, make sure you open the PHP online manual for fast&easy reference while you learn PHP it's easy. good luck |

| Hello PHPnewbee, it is difficult to give you steps to go on withouth knowing how far you got now. Ok, let us assume you did install that basic stuff and you can open a html page in browser which is comming from your local web server. It is difficult to program php when you did not create some html pages before. But let us assume you did html coding on local hard disk and opening this pages by double-click in your browser. Now you need to open that html pages not from hard disk, but directly trough your web server. That mean you have to open browser and look at your web server to give you pages. That mean if your html pages are under C:\httpd\HtDocs and are named like index.html, then you can open it by putting this in your browser: <A HREF="http://localhost/index.html">http://localhost/index.html</a> If this works, then you can start php. php is embedded inside your html pages. The ending of the files has to be *.php but the content can be completely html. All you get is a new html tag <?php ?> Everything inside this tag is php code. Put inside your page source something like this: <?php print "Hello World"; ?> And save this as C:\httpd\HtDocs\hello.php Call it in browser with: <A HREF="http://localhost/hello.php">http://localhost/hello.php</a> And you did it! |
