hi all I'm VERY new to PHP and I'm having a slight problem... I want to be able to run PHP scripts on my computer without installing a web browser. Let's say I have this code.... myScript.php CODE
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>PHP Example</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
[color=#009900] <?php
print "This is an awesome scripting example.";
?>[/color]
</BODY>
</HTML>
ok. if I open this with Firefox or IE or any other Browser, I will get a blank document titled "PHP Example". I know that this is because the browser simply ignores the script between the <? tags. So, what I want to do, is find a way to run/execute 'myScript.php' and open the result in a browser. I tried using the php-cgi.exe program included in the download from the PHP website, running the script with that, then copy-pasting the output into an HTML file and opening that in the Browser, but the problem is, for really long output, the console clips off the earliest part of the output. So yeah, If anyone has any ideas I would be greatly appreciative to hear them. Thanks alot!

Please search the forum and you'll find Set Up Own Hosting for an idea how to run php scripts in your own pc. I had the same question and I recently completed this task. You have to install Apache and PHP in your system to run php scripts in your local computer. Even though you're not running a web server from your computer, PHP only works if a webserver is set to your system. Read Apache installation procedure and add these lines at the end of httd.txt QUOTE LoadModule php5_module "c:\php\php5apache2.dll"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
PHPIniDir "C:\php" Again, instructions are on Apache's site. Then install PHP and follow the php.net Apache installation documentation. And then restart your computer. I originally installed IIS instead of Apache on my laptop but it did not work well. I guess fooling XP Home to install IIS (which is not possible but I hacked it to work it) caused more trouble than installing Apache. Apache installation was smooth and it worked right away. PHP installation was bit tricky but if you take the time to read the documentation, you'll get it right away. Finally, running your php script will be http://localhost/*directory/script_in_php where *directory is optional.

You need to set up your machine to run as a web server. If you've got XP Pro, you can do it under IIS - just add your script to a folder in Inetpub/wwwroot/ and then in your browser go to http://localhost/nameOfTheFolder/nameOfFile.php. (If IIS isn't already installed, go to Control Panel/Add Remove Programs/Add Windows Components.) Alternatively, you can download something like XAMPP and install PHP, Apache and MySQL on your machine. Edit: BuffaloHelp beat me to it.

I understand your problem. You must install any webserver software with cgi support. For example: Apache, IIS and other...As for me, I use Apache 2 webserver software for execute my scripts on my local computer. Apache webserver software you can download at http://www.apache.org. And IIS you can install from Windows 2000/XP/2003 installation disk in Control Panel/Add or Remove Software section. After installation of any webserver software you must config it to execute php scripts. For example: Apache - in configuration file in Conf directory; IIS - in special settings dialogs in Control Panel of Windows. This is very real way to running php scripts locally. And your php-html output on your computer will be such as on your hosting server where installed Apache (*nix based hosting) or IIS (Windows based hosting)For executing your 'myScript.php' you must put it into special webserver directory: /inetpub/www/ - IIS /Apache/htdocs/ - Apache. And type in your browser address bar url like: http://localhost/myScript.phpor http://127.0.0.1/myScript.phpAfter it press Enter and your script will load in your browser like on your webhosting server. Good luck!

Yo man, here's the link to a web server called XAMPP. http://www.apachefriends.org/download.php?...0-installer.exeInstall it and paste all your php files under XAMPP directory's "htdocs". Then, you should run XAMPP services -Apache- and -mySQL- Lastly, you should link to your page using "http://localhost/yourpage.php"

Hi Guy... firt of all print is a CGI function you need to use echo instead of print... also you need to download a php apache program which should be installed in C:/PHP or such... secondly you need to get you a PHP editor like DzSoft Dreamweaver doesnt work even though you can edit it and such... ok man hope this helps at all
