I do not have Apache installed; therefore I did not see any HTTPD.CONF file to look at. I am using it as a straight CGI midule.
I proceeded to set up the web server by first installing the PWS from the Win98SE CD. Next, I installed the Win PHP manually. I believe my problem was configuring the php.ini file. I have managed to get it working in a way now, but the problem now is it cannot parse a variable input from an HTML form. What might I have still done wrong?
