Hello,

I'm trying to teach myself PHP and MySQL to make a website. I was
looking into what I need to install to get PHP and MySQL working on my
computer and I saw someone suggest using appserv
(www.appservnetwork.com) on another post. So I downloaded it and
installed it, and I guess everything went well...but now what? Apache
is running, I told MySQL to "start", but I don't know what to do now.

I tried writing a php script called test.php3 in notepad and saving it
on my computer, but Internet Explorer won't open it. Plus...how do I
get into MySQL to enter data into the database. I'm confused! I feel
confident that I can learn the coding if I could just get started!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks,
Zach
