PHP Installation

From

Dear All,
 
I have been trying to get these three (Win XP, PHP4 and Apache)working together. I've got as far as my localhost gets recognised,(welcome page) but my test.php instead of being interpreted it is listing the php code. So, I cannot test PHP pages. I guess I did something wrong during the installation. Also I cannot understand why all this mistery on the installation. If the wizard is not able to put the right files to the right folders and put the right directives to the right place in the .conf file what's the point to have it?
Sorry, I am very annoyed. My next step would be to use MySQL as well.
Please, feel free to ask questions before posting your final advice.

Regards,
Rinku

This is a PostgreSQL-PHP list... Not a PHP-only liste. Please do subscribe
to mailing lists @ php.net...

Oh, there are some people who hate MySQL here (like me...)...

You have been prevously also advised to subscribe  apropriate mailing
list. not only this you were also directed to
apachefriends.org which have  a ready made combo off all that above things.
Instead of all this help you could not  get it working  at this point I
doubt your might.

"My next step would be to use MySQL as well"

Those words tickles me and we on this good  list feel blackmailed.

Me too. Please don´t ask people on a PostgreSQL list how to set up a mere
webserver and even set it up with another database than PostgreSQL. If you need
help to install a PHP/Apache including PostgreSQL connects, you are welcome. If
you ask how to use a competitor´s product, ask them.

Reagrds, Frank.
