Ok, I am having some difficulty that I have had for quite some time that I have decided to finally tackle. I am using Apache 1.3.28 to host my website [Bombingpixels.com](http://bombingpixels.com). I have tested PHP on it and it does not seem to work. Does anybody know a very simple way to install PHP, all the tutorials I have been to seem complicated, I just want a step by step, what to do. Oh, and by the way, I am running Windows XP. I think that my be helpful.:jail: :puzzled: Thanks, Jeff ---

that wasn’t very nice to say that I shouldn’t be hosting my site myself, How many 13 year-olds have setup a web-server on their computer and is getting another one in about a week. I also have setup another server other than mine. ---

He said that if you can’t understand the page that he showed then you don’t know enough to be hosting sites. It has nothing to do with age. ---

Oh, I thought he meant that I shouldn’t host my site if I couldn’t do it already without that tutorial. My misunderstanding, my bad. Thanks, Jeff
