I have been using the manuals and typing samples in the text editor and
saving the infor as a php file. They display blank.
Here is a sentence
Now you have finished your script save it as phpinfo.php and upload it
to your server in the normal way. Now, using your browser, go the the
URL of the script. If it has worked (and if PHP is installed on your
server) you should get a huge page full of the information about PHP on
your server.
I think I do not know how to "upload it to my server in the nornal way
I was looking for something like front page or dreamweaver.
I got my sample script.
I named it myfirstphp.php
I opened my XMMA using localhost
I when to file, open and found the file in the place you suggested.
The display is blank.
<html>
<head>
<title>My first PHP page</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
print "Hello World";
?>
</body>
</html>
I think I do not understand the statement upload it in the normal
manner.
