I need serious help here [php installation]

Post by sharpy25 »

Hi My name is Jason from Detroit, MI

My mom was diagnosed with cancer last month, and we have no insurance. We have been recieving some help but I need to generate alot more so that we can carry on through these trying times.

I'm building a website to get the word out and for people to read her story that live in the community and surrounding areas.

My only problem is that I am pretty dumb with this stuff , I have made some HTML sites on my comcast account but thats about it.

What I was wondering is I already rented the web space and it has PHP on it but can someone plz just set up the regular PHP for me? I have used it before but never installed It and I just don't "get" and don't have time for the instructions.

So anybody willing to help me out which I really need just e-mail me at sharpy25@Comcast.net and I will send you the FTP info and the cpanel info. And whatever else you would need.

I really appreciate you just taking the time to read this far I know you some of you may not have the time for me but I really need some Help Thanks

Jason

Contact your host and ask them to install PHP if it is already not installed, I doubt that they will give you access to do it.

sorry to hear about your mom :(

PS : do NOT ever send your accont password and usernamre..EVAR.

If someone is willing enough to help, make it over the phone and he can give you all the help you need.

Places with cPanel usualy already have PHP installed. Have a look on the left hand side of the Cpanel main page and you should see a section saying what version of PHP is installed. Im sure it already will be.

If you need any help coding a few scripts then dont hesitate to ask.

Side Note: Giving passwords over the phone is just as insecure, if not more so.
