I may not be much help to you as I don't have any flavour of Windows 9X here (and hope I never do!), but since I wrote the installer, I know what it should have done! Apart from sticking all the files in the correct places and editing the php.ini file, it adds the script mappings for the php extensions you chose to the registry. I don't know if PWS on Win9x supports multiple script map nodes (i.e. if different folders are allowed to have different script maps). If it does, the installer only sets the script mapping for the root node, so any deeper nodes can override the script map setting - this would stop php getting a look in. I'm not sure whether your version of PWS supports ISAPI modules, but even if it does, I'd stick to the cgi version for getting started anyway. You can check if php itself is working by running php.exe in a command window by changing directory to c:\php and typing 'php.exe -i' - that should spew out the phpinfo() information as html. It turns out that all the %s %s stuff in the script mapping is not needed anymore with php, so just mapping the file extension to the full path to the executable should be ok. Any Win9x PWS users out there with any other ideas? Cheers -- Phil Driscoll Dial Solutions +44 (0)113 294 5112 http://www.dialsolutions.com http://www.dtonline.org
