Ok, I know this is going to be great once I get it going! I loaded PHP and I followed the directions to the T (as far as I can tell). Next I loaded Apache and at first it would not restart. I followed the instructions about replacing the file and now Apache is humming along. To see where I was at I created the index.php file you mentioned in order to check if apache and PHP are talking. I put it in htdocs and went to my browser and entered "http://localhost" . At this point I get the standard Apache confirmation page that tells me all is well with Apache. I then tried "http://localhost/index.php" even though I know I shouldn't have to and I get a 404 document not found error. I went back through all of the procedures again and I'm getting the same result. Here are the stats:

Windows XP SP1
Apache file used: apache_2.0.43-win32-x86-no_ssl
PHP file used: php-4.3.0-Win32

Any advice for a frustrated newbie :dead: ? Thanks in advance.
