Hello and thx for looking, further thx to anyone who attempts to help me solve my problem.
Here is the deal. I downloaded the new version of PHP from php.net, and finished the manual install.
Special notes: my php dir is C:\php, which is also where my extensions are. In IIS I stopped the web server and configed it to associate php & php3 files to c:\php\something*isapi.dll.
Afterwards, when I run a PHP file it opens a DOS window, runs, then closes. I opened DOS, ran a PHP manually, and get no errors, but instead HTML code.
To further aggravate me, when I try to access a php file from my browser it gives me error 500 Internal Server Errors. I am not sure why this is because I can browse those files in their web dir's, however I can not run them.
Any advice would be awesome.
Thx,
Adam
