Hi -

New to the forums - what a great resource! I did do a search, but I couldn't find anything. This is more of a PHP config question and I know I must be missing something obvious, so apologies. I thought someone might be able to spot right off a beginner's faux paus!

I need to change my .php files to .php5 for my client's host to utilize php v5 and above (I'm using a function that needs v5+). I've changed the files on the host (linux) and they are fine & happy. But, I'm developing on a Windows XP box and IIS isn't recognizing the .PHP5 extension. Please tell me it's something in the .ini file I'm not seeing and I don't have to install php again :)

Thanks so much for any advice or pointers. I can't believe I can't come up with the right keywords to get anything useful for this! Thanks again!

Welcome to Webmaster World.

What you are asking about is not a PHP configuration change, it is an IIS configuration change and needs to be set up using the IIS Manager. Instructions for changing the file extensions in IIS can be found at [classicasp.aspfaq.com...]

Hi Jezra,

Thanks a million for responding - fixed. I knew it was something simple - didn't know where to look. You're the best and thank you again for taking the time to repond!
