Ok, I own my own server (a friend set it up for me) that is run on Red Hat Linux & Apache. I have a PHP page that wont show up. What setting do I change to make it show up? Can it be fixed through WS_FTP or do I have to use Putty/telnet? Sorry if this is posted somewhere else, but I coulndn't find it....I am a newbie afterall.

you need to be more specific when you say that it "wont show up". does it come up as a blank page, does it give an error, what is happening? And does this happen with every php page, or just the one?

Ok, I think I figured out most of the problem. Now the page shows up fine, but the SSI menu does not show and the simple php web counter just displays the script. I know both scripts work fine, because I used them on another server.

If the script works ok on one server but not on another, check the register globals settings on each - your problem could be that it's set on at one but off at the other.
There's a sticky thread about register globals if you need more info - or post again.
phpinfo() will show you the server config for this and other settings.

Ok, now I really feel like a newbie. The problem was a case thing. When editing with Micro$oft for a linux sever, the case of a file name can be changed automaticly. I never thought to check that since I always keep all file names lower case. When I upgrade my computers hardware I am switching to a linux OP so this garbage never happens to me again.
Thanks for helping me trouble shoot though. Sorry for the hassle.
