first day of php

Post by olliee »

hey folks

I started learning php today and i must have missed something. every example i have tried has also been copy/pasted to make sure i'm not making a mistake. However the echo has only worked once and it doesn't work at all with variables or $_post from html forms

i Haven't installed anything which i suspect may be my down fall and i'm using notepad ++ as an editor

any thoughts?

cheers

EDIT

Turns out the bit of code that worked shouldn't have without a server running i'll let you's know how it goes when i have a standalone on the go

Notepad ++ is a good start :)

Install WAMP it is good for windows. But nothing beats linux :wink:
