So i installed apache on windows Xp
Also installed Mysql
And php i am having trouble with seeing the php files in loacalhost

this is the steps i did
tep 1: Default installation of Apache

Step 2: Default installation of mysql

Step 3: Download php zip file, extract it to ur C: drive under c:\php

Step 4: Add these paths to ur classpath, "C:\php", "C:\php\ext", incase ur installation directory is php, else watever is the name of ur php installation directory use that instead of php

Step 5: Open httpd.conf, that is located in Apache web server installation folder, under conf directory i.e.,
Apache Installation folder > conf > httpd.conf

Add these lines....
>LoadModule php5_module "c:/php/php5apache2_2.dll"
>AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

Step 6: goto php installation directory, there u'll find a file named php-ini-recommended, rename it to, php-ini.

Step 7: Now time to modify php-ini, file... open the file in notepad, look for extension=php_mysql.dll, uncomment it, i.e., delete ";" thats prefixed...also look for "extension_dir=" append "C:\php\ext" incase ur php installation directory is php else "C:\%installation dir%\ext"

Step 8: Copy libmysql.dll to c:\windows\system32
