i have the php setup files for my server which runs on windows. THERE SOOOO MANY FILES!!!!! how do i install it. I cant seem to find anything to tell me how
Are you running it off your PC or an actually LIVE server? Coz to get PHP to work you need a web server and then PHP. I can help with installing Apache 2.45 or whatever the latest and PHP 4.2.3 and MySQL 4.013 or again whatever version it is since I've managed to get them to run on my PC which I use as my test server.

i have a live server, as in theres another computer sitting right next to me . I WOULD LOVE for you to tell me how to get php and mySQL to work.
Right first go to http://www.apache.org and get the apache web server version 2.0.45 or whayever it is.
Then go to http://www.php.net and get the latest version of PHP.The latest is 4.3.3 I'm running 4.3.1 though there shouldn't be any differences, if there is use version 4.3.1 and then upgrade using their instructions to 4.3.3.
Final bit of downloading go to http://www.mysql.com and get MySQL version for Windows 4.0.14a, the top one.
Next install apache, install php and then mysql. They should all have setup/install.exe files for you to run. To check it went OK under your C drive there should be two extra folders one saying PHP and another saying mysql, if so they are installed. Apache is installed here :: C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2 and the path to where to place documents that are to be accessed from the web are in :: C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs
