Don't forget to chmod the dir.

It should be this:
code:
<?php
$a = 1
$b = 5
if ($a > $b) {
echo "A is bigger B";
elseif ($a == $b) {
echo "A is as big as B";
else {$a < $b) {
echo "A is smaller then B";
}
?>

No it shouldn't! It should be this:
code:
<?php
$a = 1;
$b = 5;
if ($a > $b) {
echo "a is bigger than b";
} elseif ($a == $b) {
echo "a is equal to b";
} else {
echo "a is smaller than b";
}
?>

Don't forget to download the manual. 
RE: php doubt(i'm still a noob don't worry LOL) by Jhrono on 02-26-2005 at 08:02 PM
I've been reading stuff from the manual but some of the codes are hard to remember...

codes? If you mean functions.. then that's programming for you. Trust me, it's normal to refer to the documentation a lot when programming.
