Total Novice, installed Apache, MySQL and PHP need HELP!
Posted: Fri Feb 20, 2004 6:48 am
I'm a total novice to php but I have 4 years background in using html.
I've installed Apache on Windows and think I have correctly configured it to recognise PHP. I've also installed MySQL.
I've now worked out how to save a file in notepad with the .php file extension just to display my first "hello world" but can't get it to work.
What could I be doing wrong? Where should I save the php file in the first place or doesn't that matter?
I've been following the book "php for dummies" and I really feel like the biggest dummy of all right now. HELP.
