Problems with PHP running on a local Server Win XP

Post by JMBlundell »

I have set up IIS 5.1 on a laptop installed MySql and PHP 4 so I can develop and test offline.

Everything appears to be working, I can query the database and view the sites using HTTP, however when I use a HTML form which calls a PHP script to process the fields it cannot find the POSTed variables.

I have checked the setup for both the IIS and PHP but there is nothing obvious, the IIS has been told to allow all headers to go to PHP both for .php and .php3 and there is nothing obvious in the php.ini

I have not checked if cookies are working thats the next step.

Can anyone help ?

Puzzled of Thailand :?
