cURL install

Post by arcticwolf »

Hello, I am new to programming and started with PHP. I have a project and need to install cURL. I have exhausted everything trying to find how to install cURL and get it to work. Can someone point me to installation instruction that a newbie can understand. Thank you Melinda :banghead:

What operating system? You want to install curl itself, or the PHP extension?

I'd recommend installing WAMP in your case. http://www.wampserver.com/en/

WAMP has all the PHP extensions and allows you to enable and disable them with the click of a mouse. It's what I use at work (Where they force me into using Windows).

Hi, I have WAMP installed. I am trying to get a simple webbot to work. and I just keep getting an error message so I am not sure what is wrong. I am thinking about getting another cheap laptop and putting Linux on it but for now I have windaws. :banghead:
