The instructions say
General Installation Steps
The following steps should be performed on all installations before the
server specific instructions.
Extract the distribution file to a directory of your choice. "C:\PHP\" is a
good start.
Copy the file, 'php.ini-dist' to your '%WINDOWS%' directory and rename it to
'php.ini'. Your '%WINDOWS%' directory is typically:
c:\windows for Windows 95/98
c:\winnt or c:\winnt40 for NT servers
Edit your 'php.ini' file:
You will need to change the 'extension_dir' setting to point to your
php-install-dir, or where you have placed your 'php_*.dll' files. ex: c:\php
If you are using Omni Httpd, do not follow the next step. Set the 'doc_root'
to point to your webservers document_root. ex: c:\apache\htdocs or
c:\webroot
Choose which modules you would like to load when PHP starts. You can
uncomment the: 'extension=php_*.dll' lines to load these modules. Some
modules require you to have additional libraries installed on your system
for the module to work correctly. The PHP FAQ has more information on where
to get supporting libraries. You can also load a module dynamically in your
script using: dl("php_*.dll");
On PWS and IIS, you can set the browscap.ini to point to:
'c:\windows\system\inetsrv\browscap.ini' on Windows 95/98 and
'c:\winnt\system32\inetsrv\browscap.ini' on NT Server. Additional
information on using the browscap functionality in PHP can be found at this
mirror, select the "source" button to see it in action.
The DLLs for PHP extensions are prefixed with 'php_'. This prevents
confusion between PHP extensions and their supporting libraries.
Windows 9x/NT and Apache 1.3.x
You must edit your srm.conf or httpd.conf to configure Apache to work with
the PHP CGI binary.
Although there can be a few variations of configuring PHP under Apache, this
one is simple enough to be used by the newcomer. Please consult the Apache
Docs for further configuration directives.
ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/path-to-php-dir/"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php .phtml
Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe"
To use the source code highlighting feature, simply create a PHP script file
and stick this code in: <?php show_source ("original_php_script.php"); ?>.
Substitute original_php_script.php with the name of the file you wish to
show the source of. (this is only one way of doing it). Note: On Win-Apache
all back slashes in a path statement such as: "c:\directory\file.ext", must
be converted to forward slashes.
I followed these and it still didn't work as a dll was missing. However i
installed pws and mysql too then apach worked again this time with php
