 Step 1
Run the Windows Notepad program. For example, use
Start >> Run >> and type Notepad and
press the OK button.
|
|
 Step 2
Enter the following text into Notepad. You can copy and paste it
if you'd like.
|
<html><body>
<?php
echo("Hello, world!");
?>
</body></html>
|
|
 Step 3
From Notepad, use File >> Save as and
save the file as test.php in the BadBlue installation
folder. For example, if you use BadBlue Personal Edition
and performed an installation to the default folder,
save the test script as:
c:\program files\badblue\pe\test.php
|
|
|
|
 Step 4
Important: use Windows Explorer and make sure the file
you saved has a php type (file extension) associated with it.
On some versions of Notepad, a type of txt is always assigned.
Use Windows Explorer to rename the file
from test.php.txt to test.php
if necessary.
|
 Step 5
If BadBlue is not running, start it - or if it's running, use the
system tray icon (pictured at right) and select Main menu.
|
|
 Step 6
In your web browser's address bar, remove everything after
the hostname and the slash and enter test.php, for example:
http://127.0.0.1/test.php
The Hello, World! message should appear. Congratulations!
You just created your first working PHP script!
