Hi Jason you know that may be the problem. I have
been avoiding doing that as I did not want to screw things up any
further.
This is the curious thing however. I started
reading the documentation on the apache server and there was a test script that
I ran from the document page and it just printed the script code out to the
netscape browser. This is the same thing that happened when I put the #! cgi
script symbols (can't remember the exact line as I am in windows right now)
at the top of the php script.
So my problem does not seem to be isolated to php.
I am beginning to think that something is wrong with the apache setup
indeed. It may be a path problem.
I am not sure but feel free to offer your
comments. I am learning a lot so I may struggle with this a little more before
doing a recompile or a reinstall.
