Hi,

i have just set up a local server using apache2

and i have muduled in php5 aswell

but wen i use the <? phpinfo(); ?> function nothing shows up on the page its blank. any ideas why it is not working

try doing
<?php
phpinfo();
?>

Not all servers know that <? means php

What Stox is referring to is that in the PHP INI, short tags might be turned off. If you still don't see any result, then PHP is not properly installed as an Apache mod or CGI mod.

jst thoguht i mite let u guys know

u cant install apache2 (lastest version) with php5 (lastest version)

there seems to be a bug so i downgraded my php to php5 thanks for the help anyways
