IB server and php
Posted: Tue Mar 16, 2004 7:57 am
I am new to Mysql, apache and php..
I've recently downloaded the program IB server. and everytime I execute it it will provide me with the icon on the task bar and if I roll my mouse over it it tells me that Mysql: On and Apache:on.
I looked at the actual folder and it shows that its got some php files on my computer but when I tried creating a php file ( saving it as a php in a text document?) I tried to open it in dreamweaver mx but it opened a document which did not contain the code I took from somewhere else.
For those who know that program IB Server, do you know if I still need to instal php? I think the reason why my file wasn't recognized was because I didn't actually install the php on the system but I am not sure.
I have also no idea how mysql works . in the software I've got these following options: Apache Monitor, WinMySqlAdmin, PhpmyAdmin. no idea what these mean.
In other words.. if anyone feels like lecturing me or point me to a spot where all this could make sense , please do so!
Thanks,
Ezz
