WampServer

Hello! I am determined to learn PHP. I am well experienced in HTML, HML5, CSS, JS but I want to learn PHP. I have used it modular not from scratch. In other words, I have taken pieces of PHP code and modified it a bit to make it fit my HTML sites. This time I want to learn PHP the right way.

I downloaded the WAMP. And I have a Hello World simlple page.php. What now? How do I make it display so that I can continue to add more stuff to it and see what it does on the page?

Start WAMP

put your page.php file into c:\wamp\www\project1\page.php

Then run that from your browser using the address http : // localhost/project1/page.php

I too am just beginning and followed the steps up to running the sayHello.php file. I tried in the command terminal as well as the browser and nothing is happening. What now?

What colour is your wampmanager icon that lives in the system tray?

It is green.

Create a folder under c:\wamp\www for example c:\wamp\www\project1
Place your test file in that folder

run it by using your browser with this address
http: // localhost/project1/sayhello.php
