wildteen88 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 In what file are you saving your php code? All PHP code must be saved in files ending in .php, example filename.php. All files must be saved in WAMP's www folder (eg C:/wamp/www) To run your php scripts you must be going http://localhost Also there is no need to restart your PC when changing PHP settings. Your only need to restart the WAMP services.

PFMaBiSmAd Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 In your php.ini, set error_reporting = E_ALL and set display_errors = ON, stop and start your web server to get any change made to php.ini to take effect, then try your code again.

Jago6060 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 If you're just looking to essentially serve webpages with PHP/MySQL, just download WAMPServer or XAMPP for Windows. Both of those programs handle the Apache web server, PHP, MySQL, and some extras. You'll probably need to though. Its definitely not complicated though, 5 minute setup for both programs. Keep in mind... "Linux:In a world without walls, who needs Windows?"

wildteen88 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 the INCLUDE(); is not working In what way? As in you're getting errors. A blank screen. What? You need to be more descriptive about your problem.
