Hi, I am trying to learn PHP but am having some problems getting my
code running in Explorer 6.
[...]
By the way I don't have the Internet at home
No, you won't have. It's at my house at the moment. Pop round sometime and
borrow it if you want. Just be sure to bring it back though! ;-)
or a server installed,
is this the problem?
Yup! You need to install a server on your PC (eg. Apache), download and
install PHP from
http://www.php.net, and then it should work. Just remember
that you can't just open "C:\My websites\phptestpage.php" like you could do
with an ordinary html page, it must be opened through the server, so
something like
http://localhost/phptestpage.php... If you have any probs
with the installation, there is extensive documentation at the php website.
If that fails you, I'm sure someone here will guide you through! :-)
You can save all this hassle by getting on the internet at home and then
ftp'ing your pages to some php-enabled web space if it is at all possible.
Cheers,
Nige
