Its kinda urgent.
PHP on MS Windows is not my thing, but I've not seen a reply so I'll try to give some pointers. Firstly, does and ordinary .html file work correctly? This is just to check the webserver is working. The fact that you have a LoadModule line tells us you have PHP configured as a DSO rather than CGI, so you do not need the doc_root setting in php.ini (according to the text in php.ini). Presumably you have set DocumentRoot in httpd.conf (to c:\apache\htdocs ?). Also, just checking, the doc_root you give has "apche" rather than "apache", is this just a typo on your email? Getting a blank screen I seem to remember has come up before with PHP on MS Windows, you could search the bugs at http://bugs.php.net for and answer. It would also be a good idea to search the archives of this list (available at http://lists.php.net but do not seem to be searchable, though a searchable one is at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com ). You could also search the php-windows list (at the same urls), or if all else fails, post there. Have you tried a google search? Hope this helps Chris
