Make sure you read the specific steps for installing on Windows ( http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.manual.php) and IIS (http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.iis.php). To get running with IIS (or any other web server), you need to verify that your settings are correct and the web server knows that PHP actually exists on the machine. To verify that it's installed properly, put this file on your web server... If you get "Hello World" (w/o quotes) on that page when you visit it, you know it's working. Under optional steps: > > How do I change the doc_root to point to the web servers document_root?? > This was an optional step but not sure how to do this? (sorry basic > question!) and what extensions would you recommend that I install? This is a php.ini file setting. Look for the line that says: doc_root = For a Windows installation, you will want it to look something like: doc_root = C:\Inetpub\wwwroot Of course, if you set your web server's document root to a different location, you'll want to reflect that in this line.

Dear Pal, As a PHP Programmer, I will advice you to go for an Application called WAMP which is the combination of MS WINDOWS PLATFORM, APACHE WEBSERVER, MYSQL DATABASE and PHP as Language. I have been working with this application and have used it in developing different applications on PHP platform. You can get WAMP(WINDOWS,APACHE,MYSQL,PHP) from the following link with the related docs on how to use and operate it very well.

[PHP] Parsing Strings
Hi. Before I try and reinvent the wheel, I thought I'd query the list. I want to take this string: thisIsAStringIHave and turn it into: This Is A String I Have Essentially, I want to capitalize the first letter (ucfirst) and then put a space in front of each uppercase letter. I didn't find a PHP function that did this (but maybe I didn't look diligently enough). My idea to accomplish this is to create an array of capital letters. Then iterate through each letter in the string. If a letter in the string matches a letter in the array of capital letters, replace that letter with a space + that letter. Is there a better way than brute-forcing this?? =D Thanks in advance, ~Philip

[PHP] Two MySQL instances in one server
Hi all, Would it be possible to have two MySQL instances running on one server (each having different ports) and then have only one running Apache server with PHP? I have tried this once but PHP can only connect to one MySQL server because it can only read one socket file at a time. As much as possible, I would prefer a purely mod_php solution as opposed to one that would have PHP running on CGI. Thanks in advance, Matt -- Stand before it and there is no beginning.

I am using multiple datasources (not socket ones) but I see absolutely no reason there would be a limit. Are you sure you had all the right paths? I run multiple mysql instances on each of my mysql servers - each client of mine has their own. I use mysqlmanager as the angel process to manage them, restart them, etc. It's included in MySQL 5.x nowadays. much better than having to tweak initscripts.

I just realized a problem with this code.
You have tabs/spaces/new lines between your different tags, so my regx needs a
little modification
Try this instead:

Re: [PHP] A two flavored post
i was just working on some stuff and remembered how ive handled a problem
like this in the past.
the issue you have to wrestle w/ is the anchor tag will perform its normal
behavior after the onclick
handler has finished executing. basically, onclick is just part of the
process for the anchor tag.
well, what ive done in the past is determined, its only a link if you think
its a link :) so i just toss some
css on a span tag to make it look like a link, then you get full control
over the onclick behavior.
heres some sample css:
/* anchor imitator */
span.anchorImitator {
font-size: 11px;
font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,san-serif;
font-weight: 400;
color: #1505A5;
text-decoration: none;
}
span.anchorImitator:hover {
cursor:pointer;
font-size: 11px;
font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,san-serif;
font-weight: 400;
color: #AEF3F9;
text-decoration: underline;
}
of course it wont do much w/o javascript enabled.
