Greetings,
 
PHP Newbie here. Hoping for some help. Yes, I searched the archives. Cannot find the 
answer. Yes, I read the manual. Cannot find the answer. Here's the situation...
 
Running...
Win98SE
PHP 4.3.2 (cgi-fcgi) (obtained from command prompt)
php.ini is installed in \windows
php4ts.dll is in \windows ; \windows\system ; \php ; \inetpub\wwwroot\cgi-bin
 
will work on command prompt: for example - php -i, php -h, php -f index.php ... all 
run fine.
 
I have checked and edited the php.ini file properly (according to the manual - the 
install script did not do this?)
 
But, it appears, it is not parsing pages - for example the file containing...
 
<html>
    <head>
        <title>PHP Example</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <?php 
        echo "Hi, I'm a PHP script!"; 
        ?>
    </body>
</html>

located at...
 
http://localhost/index.php
 
is generating...
 
The page cannot be displayed 
The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be 
experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings. 
<clip>
 
When the page is browsed to... C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\index.php
 
The <title> in properly dispalyed, but all I get is white space, when I should have...
   Hi, I'm a PHP script! 
 
Your thoughts and direction are most appreciated.
 
The PHP/MySQL newbie
 
PS Also having the same issues with the sample .php script for MySQL I pulled from the 
manual - but assume that is due to the same. MySQL is running fine (it appears) from 
command prompt and GUI, can start/stop msqld, create db's, create tables, add data, 
etc. Hopefully, someone will share the PHP magic that I need to get this up and 
running and then I will have MySQL too :)
