What I'm getting is apache running and Firefox asking to save any .PHP file I try to invoke from the browser under localhost.

What do I need to change?

I noticed, when I download the 5.1.3 installer that it goes into the windows registry but tries to config for IIS, but the 5.1.4 is only a .zip file, which is a simple extract, but does not register the program with windows.

How do I correct this?

you don't need to "register the program with windows". you are using php as an apache module so it is called by apache.

there was an issue between apache and php in the php 5.1 code branch. i think this related to apache 2.2 code branch. if this is what you are using you need to upgrade your php installation to the 5.2 code branch. this is not yet released but is in the stable section of the daily snaphots.

in your php.ini file

extension=ext/php_mysql.dll

i don't believe the above works.
on the extension line JUST have extension=php_mysql.dll
then change your extensions directory directive to the relevant directory

extension_dir = "D:/Program Files/PHP/ext"

note that in the past i have struggled with this directive and directory names with spaces in them. if you have the same problem try this instead

extension_dir = "D:/progra~1/PHP/ext"

lastly none of this will work if mysql has not been properly installed. there is also the issue of ensuring that the mysql libraries are in the right place. the solution to this is to put libmysql.dll in the php directory (and the ext directory if you want) and then had the php directory to the windows path (right click on my computer, select properties, select advanced, select environment variables, and in the lower box, add the path to your php directory as an addendum to the path variable.

after setting an environment variable you need to reboot. this is ok as you need to restart your apache daemon after changing the php.ini file too.

come on! if you want help in this forum, spend the time giving us the info we need to help you. don't just cross-post!.

from the title of the url i suspect this is a known incompatibility between apache 2.2.2 and php 5.1.

this is fixed in the latest snapshot of php. you can download this at:
