OK...There are a few problems here. First of all, is
'register_globals' set to 'on' in php.ini? That is the configuration
setting that tells PHP to fill in all of the POST and GET vars as
regular variables. This is HUGE security vulnerability, so you
shouldn't use it. Instead, use this php code.
<?php
if ($_POST['name'] == "" || $_POST['mail'] == "") {
echo "<font face='Verdana' size='4' color='red'>You must complete all
fields.</font>";
} else {
echo "<font face='Verdana' size='4'>All right!</font>";
}
?>
That should work great. Or you could turn register_globals on and
allow the user to change the value of any variable in your script.
HTH,

I installed a pretty general manual installation of PHP and it's
working, I do a phpinfo() and life is good. I can't seem to get it to
connect to MySQL though. I read something about the extensions and PEAR
and all that. I've got the libraries in my Windows directory and all
that but when I do a phpinfo() I get no references to MySQL and I can't
connect to the database. MySQL is installed locally on the box.
Any ideas?

Good morning,
I seem to have PHP working with IIS reasonably well, I have a .php file
with <? Phpinfo(); ?> in it and life is good. If I put that same line
in an HTML file the server doesn't know what to do with it. On Unix
with Apache and PHP I can put PHP directives in .htm[l] files and it
works. Anyone know how to do this on IIS???
