quikkslvr Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Im new to php and i'm trying to select a database. I bought a php e commerce script (If im posting in wrong area forgive me and please let me know) and I set up the site locally, installed xampp, put my root folder in the htdocs , and created a blank database . How do i view the index file of this ecommerce script? it has a buch of includes on the page, how do i go about learning to glue this script together? Do I have to start with the database? ps, i havent set up any bindings or record sets as i am just learning what they are! Thanks and happy new year! PS.

Pikachu2000 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 If you're asking what it appears you're asking, http://localhost/ or possibly http://localhost:8080/ should be where you browse to the index file.

quikkslvr Posted December 29, 2012 Author Share Posted December 29, 2012 Right, and my apologies for not being clear, due to my lack of understanding. When I do that , it just bring up xampp interface, where should I look or how do I start to populate the data on the index file of a given template such as this shopping script. Thanks!

Pikachu2000 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Without knowing anything about the specific application or your directory structure, there's no way to give you an accurate answer.
