It depends on how the server has PHP configured... have you tried it with a PERL-style shebang line at the top of your scripts? Give something like:
#!/usr/bin/php -q a go, and see if you get any joy (you may need to play with the path) Failing that, email the sysadmin for the server and ask him/her how PHP's been installed.

To test the server environment available I have just uploaded the classic test php page with only phpinfo() inside. When I point to that URL (http://mycustomerdomain.com/test.php), netscape just opens the "Save as (type application/octet stream)" window. This means that the *server* is not set up to fire up the PHP interpreter on files ending with .php, right? What could the reason be? Is it possible that the fault is in the file, for example the CR/LF mess when moving files from Linux to Win**. If it *is* a server problem, what should I suggest to the ISP sysadmin (which is responsive, but knows almost exclusively IIS/ASP/VBScript)? Please help: the customer is starting to scream, and it is really embarassing to be stuck like this when I have a bunch of pages perfectly workiing under Linux just waiting inside my PC. ********************************************************************** 'The information included in this Email is of a confidential nature and is intended only for the addressee.
