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?

As I said, I don't know if you can do that with '98, but I think not.

So, it would be an Apache problem.
How did you proceed to set up the web server ?

You should look at the HTTPD.CONF file, which has the config for Apache.
You have directives that allow or forbid the access to directories.

There should be a "default area", like this

<Directory />
#    Options FollowSymLinks
    order allow,deny
    allow from all
    AllowOverride None
</Directory>

After that, a directive for each directory you which to protect (or not).

In your case, I would say that either the default order is "deny,allow"
or you have another directive forbidding the access to the directory in
question.
