Erm, Help....
Im trying to run a program called gallery on my Website from here
but im having a nightmare with it.
I realise that i need PHP installed as a pre-requisite, but being an absolute PHP noob who's used nothing but Windows/DOS all his life i dont have a clue what to do.
My Webswite is hosted by Web-Mania, runs Apache, and i have permission to run CGI and PHP on my server. When i log on, I have a directory called CGI and thats it. So how do i "upload" PHP to my server - do i just FTP it on? Also, when the install script bangs on about changing this Ini file in your windows directory or add this to your PATH variable - how the hell do i do that? I suspect that i need some deeper access to my "Server" and have requested telnet be switched on - is this the right First step? But im like a blind man in a dark alley on a foggy day wandering aimlessly from clueless idea to clueless idea.
HELLLP!!!
