i think i am having some installation problem...
pls help...

this is the webby that i got the php installer from http://www.php.net/downloads.php
i have install the installer instead of the zip file, which contains more features...
after uninstalling the installer version, i unzip the zip file and follow the instruction given from the install.txt file.

Now i am face with a problem of not being able to loadup any of the php files that i have created. not even the simpel helloworld.php...

do i need to change any other settings beside this 3???
doc_root = c:\inetpub\wwwroot // for IIS/PWS
browscap = c:\winnt\system32\inetsrv\browscap.ini
extension_dir = c:/php4/extensions/

i have unzip the file and put it in c:\php4

hi Snib,

this is my code

<html>
<body>

<?php
$db = mysql_connect("localhost", "root");
mysql_select_db("mydb",$db);

if ($id) {
  // query the DB
  $sql = "SELECT * FROM employees WHERE id=$id";
  $result = mysql_query($sql);
  $myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result);

?>
  <form method="post" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF?>">
  <input type=hidden name="id" value="<?php echo $myrow["id"] ?>">
  First name:<input type="Text" name="first" value="<?php echo $myrow["first"] ?>"><br>
  Last name:<input type="Text" name="last" value="<?php echo $myrow["last"] ?>"><br>
  Address:<input type="Text" name="address" value="<?php echo $myrow["address"] ?>"><br>
  Position:<input type="Text" name="position" value="<?php echo $myrow["position"] ?>"><br>
  <input type="Submit" name="submit" value="Enter information">
  </form>

<?php
} else {
  // display list of employees
  $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM employees",$db);

  while ($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
    printf("<a href=\"%s?id=%s\">%s %s</a><br>\n", $PHP_SELF, $myrow["id"], $myrow["first"], $myrow["last"]);
  }
}
?>

</body>
