well cuz you don’t have it installed. get your windows cd and go to install windows components
I’m not sure if this applies in this case, but there have been a couple of times that Rev and I have had “issues” using POST to send variables from a Flash movie when the user was on a Mac. I’m not sure if Macromedia has completely resolved this problem or not. We’ve just gotten in the habit of using GET to avoid the issue entirely.
We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming
Got it working. I installed easyPHP and worked from there. Thanks for all of your help everyone, you made my first venture into PHP a little less painful
iight kool
I’m not really sure but that could lead to a HUGE security problem with sending prices and stuff like that with GET… If your host doesn’t allow POST then find out why they don’t and tell them that they better get their act together…
I fixed my problem Jubba. It works both ways with easyPHP on my computer but when I upload the same script it doesnt work. Something on their side not mine.

Check this out. I did the server side coding for www.sneakerstyles.com . It is hosted on Ipower, which I’m sure you know I use for my web space as well. When I used POST I got an error saying that the POST method wasn’t allowed on the server. Now I found that extremly strange and meant to ask you about but I kinda forgot. Cuz I use POST for everything on my server, and it’s the same company. Why would they disable POST?
what versions of PHP and mySQL are the best to download for use on your own computer?
i used easyPHP which is very straightforward. download and install, install the english pages (unless you speak french), then start the program. Place files in the programfiles/easyphp/www directory and type localhost into your browser (delete the index file in www first) and a directory should come up. click on the files and you are ready to go.
where are the english versions?
[edit]oops sorry got confused nevermind[/edit]
on the download page there should be some files that say english versions
