just-a-noob

Hi cags, I view the script through the browser. (don't know of any other way). Yes Apache is running. I am putting all the scripts into the 'www' directory. all i have to type to view the scripts is either: 127.0.0.1/file_name.php or localhost/file_name.php.

I have only just started learning PHP and i am thoroughly enjoying every moment. Although I have installed EasyPHP and my computer is now the server, why can't i view my scripts when i work off line?

Hi corbin, I finally managed to get it right! I did save it as variables.php but must have left out the option "all files" Thanks for the replies both

Have done as you said but it still didn't work but when i put the pointer onto the www folder it showed that the folder contained a file called variables.php.txt? And when i typed http://127.0.0.1/variables.php.txt into the address bar and the source code appeared?

Please could someone help me please. I am running Windows XP and i have downloaded and installed EasyPHP5.3.0 So i made a simple html page with the following php: <? php print("It Worked!");?> I then saved the file as variables.php and then saved it to the www folder within EasyPHP. But when i open Firefox and print http://127.0.0.1/variables.php i only get Object not found? The same happens if i type http://localhost/variables.php Could someone tell me what i am doing wrong please. Big thanks for any and all help
