I've managed to install by hand PHP 4.3.3 under Windows 98. As a web server I'm using Apache 1.3.x and tried to install PHP as a module. It works quite dandy and all except for the fact that I can't pass variables to a PHP script.
Probably a setting in php.ini.
register_globals = Off
The samples you are playing with probably need 'On'
This is not a 'safe' way of working, and a search for 'register_globals' will give many examples of how to change the samples to work.
