Thank you! I’ve tried, it works quite well.
But according to my book, to force Apache to load the CGI version of
PHP, user must add the following lines in the Apache config file
httpd.conf:
AddHandler php-script .php
Action php-script /cgi-bin/php
Then delete the reference to .php from the AddType line (if it
exists), so it looks like this:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .phtml
“
By removing .php from the AddType directive, files with this
extension will use the CGI version
of PHP even if the environment contains a DSO version. If you don’t
remove the reference,
then Apache will continue to use the DSO version of PHP to handle
documents of type php. “

My Questions are:
1. Does the procedures described above are required for MS4W?
(The book author
did the illustration on the Linux version of mapserver, I guess so).
not required, as MS4W's apache is already configured for PHP use.
2. That loading the PHP Mapscript module in my PHP script
dynamically does work,
but does that mean my server has to load this module repeatedly for
every web client
request? Is there a better solution that apache will load PHP
Mapscipt module automatically
whenever starting?
To load the module automatically:
- add the following line around line#650 of /Apache/cgi-bin/php.ini:
extension=php_mapscript.dll
- then restart apache
