I'm a newbie to PHP and I can't get started so this may sound like a mundane
question to you professionals.
I am using Windows XP Pro and have IIS 5.1 to be the server. I installed PHP
5.2.1 straight from PHP.net and it seems to have installed correctly.
I created a test page on Notepad and saved as test.php into
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\test
when I view it in IE 7 I see the script instead of the output. What am I
doing wrong please. I'm sure it's something simple. I've checked and
rechecked the syntax, I've copied code from the web all with the same
result.
Any help appreciated. Thanks.
