I will look into that server. I've installed ActivePerl, which gives me a way to run .pl files, i.e. : c:\> perl someprogram.pl Does the php installation give me a command-line interpreter like that? Here's why I'm asking. I have a set of pages that I want to convert to php, but I will also need to drop those pages onto a CD too. I supposed I could view each page from the server and 'save as HTML' locally, but I was thinking that I might be able to run a php interpreter on the *.php pages and generate corresponding *.html pages in batch mode as follows: c:\> php index.php > index.html c:\> php about.php > about.html etc. and then run a batch search/replace program on the *.html files to change all links to .php pages to link to the newly-generated pages. Is there anything like that or does the install package just configure a web server? -- John A.
