Thanks.. Marco from Italy PWS comes with Windows 98 (and possibly later versions of Windows), and its setup program is usually installed in C:\Windows\Options\PWS (as I recall). If you go that route, you should pick up the PHP installer for IIS/PWS from http://php.weblogs.com. However, unless you have a lot of involved pages (frames), it is probably better to just get OmniHTTPD from http://www.omnicron.ab.ca -- it comes with PHP installed, and is easy to set up. It is a bit slower than PWS (it runs PHP as a CGI), but it is more stable. Later, Chris.
