ahhhh help

Hi everyone

I have just installed apache and PHP on my win 98 machine, everything seems to have worked until i try using php.

I have placed the test.php file which I have created in the C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\htdocs  directory.    Is this right?

When I try opening it in the browser i get a blank page but using right click-view source  the code is there.

I have read in the FAQ that it could be a server config problem but I cant find it anywhere.

Please help, someone

Charlotte

Open the localhost home page, and then look for links to the information you

  Just on a hunch, have you tried 
  Action application/x-httpd-php "c:/php/php.exe"
  instead of
  Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe" ?

        You souldn't use HTML formatted e-mail. In Extras | Options |
