Hi all,
I am a pseudo-coder? Not really, I know HTML, some javascript, and used to know a decent amount of C++ about 6 years ago but have not done much since then, still very familiar with HTML and have updated myself to XML/Web 2.0 standards. I am trying to get my knowledge back to work on developing a great website for my business and I wanted to learn php and mysql so I can either build a site from the ground up or at least customize a CMS or Wordpress to possibly be more powerful as for my personal needs and trim the fat I don't need. I am using Windows 7 64-bit. I noticed others seemed to be having some troubles with Windows 7 and 64 bit, well my WAMP starts and goes online fine, but I did make one mistake I am not sure how to correct. I went into phpmyadmin and gave myself a password. Now when I try to login it says:
"
#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
I do not know how to login with my password. Also, running a simple, first php lesson such as the following produces no output (saved as C:\wamp\www\index.html)
<html>
<head>
<title>PHP playground</title>
<body>
<?php
echo "Hello World";
?>
</body>
</html>
Any suggestions?

Also, when I try to view "index.php" that comes in the www directory it asks me whether to open or save, I click open, and it gives me the same question... it will not simply display the information on my screen?
