well im started to get bored with HTML, so i decided i wanted to learn something a little more complex. i have a magazine (australian personal computer) here that has an introduction to PHP. i followed their instructions (and the readme instructions) for installing it, but when i try out a test page, the PHP portion of the page doesn't appear.
i copied the approriate files into c:\winnt\system32 and also made sure that php.ini had the correct diretories. i shutdown IIS using the cmdline commands, then started it up again. then i made a page with just this in it:
<html>
<body>
<?
$testText = "PHP installation was successful";
print $testText;
?>
</body>
</html>
but when i load it in the browser, all i see is a white page, which obviously means that the PHP is being ignored.
does anyone have any ideas for what options i may have screwed up? or had this problem before?
thanks
