[PHP-WIN] php installation problem
Hello list, While installing phpafter i have configured everything, i am not able to get php running. While trying to run a test page consisting of the code: I get a dialog box saying that "You have chosen to download a file from this location". Upon opening the file, i get the whole code and not just "Hello". Please can you tell me what went wrong. I am using PHP 4.3.4, Apache 1.3.2. and Windows 2000. Also can u please tell me how do u know that php has been installed in my PC. While double clicking php.exe, a window gets opened and nothing seems to happen with it. We have to close it manually. Is it unusual or is it supposed to be like that only. Please help. Thanks in advance, penjo Yahoo! India Matrimony: Find your life partneronline.

RE: [PHP-WIN] form to php
hi, 1) The lines in the form are in the correct order. 2)i tried using HTTP_POST['age']; ?> , but it still displays the entire code. Not quite sure wht u meant by "AUTOGLOBAL ON|OFF setting". If u meant register_globals in php.ini file, then it is set to on. 3) Regarding action.php: phpinfo(); ?> It still only displays the code. I ran action.php by itself and looked at the info page and i couldnot any entries for $HTTP_POST['name'] or $ _POST['name'] or $HTTP_POST['age'] or $_POST['age'] Please help. penjo grgk2 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi 1) Line " form action="action.php" method="post"> Your name: [input] type="text" name="name" /> Your age: [input] /> [input] should read " Your name: [input] name="name" /> Your age: [input] [input] " assuming that is correct 2) Try .You are $HTTP_POST['age']; ?> REASON - php.ini - AUTOGLOBAL ON|OFF setting 3) If that doesn't work try 4) action.php: phpinfo(); ?> Try to locate entries for $HTTP_POST['name'] or $ _POST['name'] or $HTTP_POST['age'] or $_POST['age'] See if they carry any values.

RE: [PHP-WIN] form to php
Thanks for all ur repliesi have finally got it working. Thanks a lot "grgk2", i did exactly as u told me, i.e., executed the form like so: http://localhost /form.html. And it worked. I was earlier trying to access it by double clicking on it. Once again, thanks for ur help. grgk2 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Its not a bother, its the purpose of the list. Yes. What I meant was that in order for the php script to be parsed it should be executed on a web server. if your html form resides in a file named [form.html], it should be executed like so: http://localhost /form.html. if your web server has a different name just use the appropriate name My point being that you should not try to execute any php file just by double clicking on it J If you have the following 1) A web server installed on your machine 2) Php installed correctly for that WS Then the following script should yield result [Save as info.php] [Execute http://localhost/info.php] Mail me the results -Original Message- From: PHP MySQL [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 29, 2004 1:12 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [PHP-WIN] form to php 1) i have tried with all the HTML structure and it is not displaying the part using the php code. i.e., it is displaying "Hi $name.
