Confusion

[troyb713]

I'm new to php.

 

I installed php5 on my server and set up the mapping. I don't think it is working.

 

I tried a few free scripts and only one worked properly.

 

Can anyone tell me of a script that can be used as a good test?

<?php

phpinfo();

?>

Is this right?

[per1os]

Are you using Microsft Word to create the php files? LOL

 

If so open notepad. write

 

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

 

Save it as phpinfo.php

 

Upload it to the server and run it.

 

Microsoft Word is not very php friendly lol that and it is essentially binary not just plain text like php needs.

Ok, I was using Mac TextEdit, so as suggested I when to the PC an used Notepad and the result is:

So it looks to me like it is running ok. Either the scripts I was running were bad or I didn't configure them properly.

Thank you very much for all your help.
