okay guys... I've dl'ed a lot of php editors. I'm not sure what the problem is, but when I run the scipt (like (from phpbuddy) I open Firefox to display the script. Nothing shows.... I know I have php installed I really want to learn Php !! please help me.... or at least tell me some other way to display php codes. THANK YO!U!!!
do this Install http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html put your PHP files in under program file/campp/htdocs then you can view that folder like it was a server by going to "localhost" in your browser. and your PHP code is fine
that, or download wamp (included with php5, mySQL5, apache 2.2.) or easyphp (included with php4, mysql4, and apache1 (but easier in my opinion)).
Guys.... it's not working...... Please keep trying with me!! There just HAS to be a solution... I see no error with the installation.
as I said before, type in "localhost" in your browser url spot Edit: Oh, your using easyPHP. Using "localhost" may not work then...
did you start the server? you need to do that. You cannot load the file directly like through windows explorer. You have to load it through the broswer through a URL (in this case, localhost, or 127.0.0.1, which is your local ip.) That way the PHP core executes the code, you're just accessing it and its displaying it like html.
Omg... THank YOU SO MUCH GUYS!!!! >< THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! NOW I CAN START PHP'ING !!! ...... YOU GUYS ROCK, Words can't express how happy I am now. I never expected that I could also do mysql stuff.... Thank YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.... ;(
