RE: [PHP-WEBMASTER] Re: [INTERNALS-WIN] Re: [PHP-WEBMASTER] PHP Installation

Good point. I submitted a doc patch to update those instructions(http://php.net/manual/en/faq.installation.php#faq.installation.addtopath) and remove the Windows 98 instructions (no PHP release for a long time has been runnable on Windows 98). Windows 98 instructions might still be useful for somebody somewhere but make the instructions seem old and unmaintained. >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Hannes Magnusson [mailto:hannes.magnusson@gmail.com] >> Sent: Thursday, September 04, 2014 11:56 AM >> To: Stephen Zarkos >> Cc: Kalle Sommer Nielsen; internals-win; sanjeet arya; PHP Webmaster ML >> Subject: [PHP-WEBMASTER] Re: [INTERNALS-WIN] Re: [PHP-WEBMASTER] >> PHP Installation >> >> "On Windows 98/Me you need to edit the autoexec.bat file:" >> >> That page looks.. unmaintained :) >> >> Can't it just be added in the left side on windows.php.net? >> >> -Hannes >> >> >> On Thu, Sep 4, 2014 at 11:14 AM, Stephen Zarkos >> <Stephen.Zarkos@microsoft.com> wrote: >> > Hi, >> > >> > >> >> -----Original Message----- >> >> From: Hannes Magnusson [mailto:hannes.magnusson@gmail.com] >> >> >> >> On Thu, Sep 4, 2014 at 10:30 AM, Stephen Zarkos >> >> <Stephen.Zarkos@microsoft.com> wrote: >> >> > Hi Hannes, >> >> > >> >> > >> >> >> -----Original Message----- >> >> >> From: Hannes Magnusson [mailto:hannes.magnusson@gmail.com] >> >> >> >> >> >> On Thu, Sep 4, 2014 at 8:38 AM, Kalle Sommer Nielsen >> >> >> <kalle@php.net> >> >> >> wrote: >> >> >> > Hi Sanjeet >> >> >> > >> >> >> > 2014-09-03 0:09 GMT+02:00 sanjeet arya >> <sanjeetarya439@gmail.com>: >> >> >> >> I'm having problem in installing php in windows 7.
