Help with php on windows nt server

**QWERTY** · Nov 30th, 2001, 02:00 PM

Why would this code not work with my windows host? (It works under unix/linux). The error I'm getting is :"HTTP 405 - Resource not allowed"

Thanks

Do simpler scripts work? And what file extension are you using and how is that mapped on the server?

problem solved. My (ex)$150/month webhosting company doesn't support PHP

Thanks for a hint

Well, the stable version of PHP runs as CGI under NT, so I would see why they wouldn't put it on.
