I am trying to do my first php script (todays date)! I get the following......
Today's Date in (according to this Web server)
Thats it.....I do not get the date displayed. why?

here is the code for above ....

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-// W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Today's date</title>
<meta http-equiv="content-type"
content="text/html; charset=iso-8859" />
</head>
<body>
<p>Today's Date (according to this Web server) is
<?php

echo date('1, F dS Y.');

?></p>
</body>
</html>

Can someone recomend a book or some online tutorials that walk you through using php5, mysql, and dreamweaver mx?

when I type localhost in my explorer the page that loads is [localhost...] . Is asp.net conflicting with the php files and if so how do I alter it to stop? Is it a case of simply uninstalling asp.net or should I keep it there for some reason?

I can't wait to get started learning php but all this is proving quite frustrating that I can't even start! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Welcome to WebmasterWorld, satsteve.

It seems as though you don't have IIS configured to parse PHP yet. Are you sure you have your installation [php.net] correct?

thank you for your advice, yes it did occur to me but how do I configure IIS to run php5 scripts? Can you point me in the right direction please?

Many thanks
