    Sorry about this, but I'm having more problems now...

    The Chat Works great on my computer, running from the "http://localhost/" location, but I don't have any idea how to put this on the internet (because I can't pay!).

    I know the server has to have PHP enabled, but mine doesn't, and I don't know of any free web servers / folders with PHP enabled...

    Question #1
    I'm not sure how this works anyway, Is it as simple as uploading the PHP scripts and the .txt file to the PHP enabled server, or do I have to install stuff on my server? I honestly don't know how to do any of this, except uploading the files...

    Question #2
    Is it possible for someone else to upload my PHP scripts to their server, and then have flash call the scripts from their server? If so, I'd rather do it that way, but would any of you be willing to host my PHP scripts on your server if its possible?

    Finishing Up...
    So, If someone could tell me of a free PHP server, or house my scripts for me, on their server (if its possible), than please, reply to this or PM me. If anyone is interested, I'll upload the files, so that you could put them on your server (Just make sure to PM me the EXACT URL of both PHP scripts, and the .txt file)

    I will, of course, give anyone who helps me with this credit on my chat...

    Looking forward to your replies...

    to find a webspace with php: http://www.free-webhosts.com/power-search.php

    Q1: you just have to upload the php file, normally

    Q2: try one of these websites. i think that would be the easiest way
    ( i will cancel my webspace next month, and will get a new domain)


    can you explain, how can i access php files with localhost?
    that would be very useful for me.

    PHP on your computer

    To test PHP files on your computer, download wamp server (easiest way) from http://www.en.wampserver.com/
    and install it on your computer.

    at the end of the installation, you will have the option of changing what you want it to be reffered to as (the default is "localhost").

    To test PHP scripts, put them in your (if you installed to your C:/ drive) C:/wamp/www/ directory.

    You can't refer to the scripts as C:/wamp/www/your_script.php. You have to refer to them as http://localhost/your_script.php.

    (look up PHP installation on www.youtube.com. there is a very good video tutorial on how to do this...)
