Configure PHP:
Find the file php3-ini-dist in the "C:/php3" directory
Rename it to php3.ini
Load it in a text editor
Search for "extension_dir" (around line 100) in php3.ini and change this
line to read:
extension_dir = C:\php3
Change the line (around 115) that reads
;extension=php3_mysql.dll
to read
extension=php3_mysql.dll
Change the line that reads (around 225)
;browscap = extra/browscap.ini
to
browscap = C:\windows\browscap.ini
Place this file (php3.ini) in "C:\windows\"
Note above the removal of the ";" line - this is the comment tag for PHP, and must be removed in the above lines.
