RE: [PHP] Hello... PHP not in HTML

Well, You should be able to install a standalone binary, just by leaving out the "--with-apache"-directive when You run "./configure". After the "./configure", run "make", then "make install". The binary should be installed under "/usr/local/bin" or possibly "/opt/bin". I haven´t duplicated this on PHP v. >= 4, however it´s unlikely this will have changed. If any of You guys out there knows better, please post a correction note. ;_) When using the PHP-binary, just make sure the installed path is in Your PATH-variable: # "env | grep PATH" will reveal all registered paths. If this checks out ok: # "php [your_script.php]" will parse Your script through the engine, or if You use Bash just make the first line of Your script: "#!/[path_to_php]/php" "chmod 755 [script]". and run the script itself; Bash will know to use the PHP-engine to parse the file. :-) Good luck, Henrik J. > ---------- > From: James Turle[SMTP:james@turle.com] > Sent: den 27 september 2000 13:51 > To: Henrik Johansson > Subject: RE: [PHP] Hello...
