The Next Step after installing PHP 4.3.2

NeedWork · - Joined: 04 Sep 2003 Posts: 4 Location: New Jersey

I am a newbie. I have installed PHP 4.3.2 and it works - I get "Welcome to Abyss Server X1" in my browser. I tried to open my first php ("hello world") but I still get the Welcome message. I changed the file name
c:\program files\abysss web server\htdocs\index.html to mine - /index.php
This is the code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>First PHP</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
echo "<p>Hello World</p>";
?>
</body>
</html

Please tell me what me what is missing.

Where do I test the code then? I was thinking I needed to test the code before I ftp it to my website. This is a newbie talking.

Test it on your server. http://IP(without :9999)/index.php

http://0.0.0.0/index.php // the 0 is your IP

the quick way is goto ur console and delete ":9999"

By the way, if your on the internet.

Your AWS is broad casting on the net.

If your using a dial up. Look up your ISP IP, or if u have Cable/DSL,
you will notice internet user can access your server.
