Re: PHP setup

Hi Carmen!
I guess I'm slow on my messages too, but I appreciate the response!
Thing is, I'm getting heavy workloads from day job and home life, and 
this is preparation for life after my current position.

I've used the control panel too, and like I explained in my other 
message, it acts like it's running okay. But when I go to the browser 
and type in http://localhost/, I get a big blank page with nothing.

I've looked over the explanations in Bryan Kelly's book, excellent as it 
is. I'm probably missing something but at this point the book said it is 
supposed to show some kind of XAMPP welcome page...

Also from the previous message:
> Firewalls are not a problem.
> The command entry window opens up and shortly says Apache and MySql is starting.
