omg thank you no one has never told me that, how do i use it

[BouncingBalls]

OMG.... :blink:

You can't use it like that...PHP isn't easy, you need a lot of work to know how to use it correctly...You should search some tuts on Google...

i bought a book it gave me the CD im trying to learn, just been reading but i dont know how to input codes i have learned or test out the codes

I'll make it easy.

PHP PARSER - Its inergrated to the HTTP server and reads the php script and return an awnser to the server
HTTP SERVER - Enable an other computer to connect on your computer to fetch the page
PHP SCRIPT - Your .php file

Php isn't like javascript. PHP(rendered on the server) JS(Render on the client computer)

An easy way to set up a php server is using pack.

These pack include the HttpServer, PhpInterpretor,MySql Database, etc...

I recommend

WAMP - http://www.wampserver.com/
or
EasyPHP - http://www.easyphp.org/

please donate credits if you found it useful

Good luck learning php if you didn't know this :geek:
