PHP running parallel with ASP??

[Anon]

Does anyone know if you can run PHP parallel with ASP on IIS on the same server? If so any good place on the net you can point me to to configure it?

Thanks!

Yes you can. Just following the instructions at http://php.net or run the easywindows PHP installer at

http://php.weblogs.com/easywindows

IIS recognises .ASP files are executed by ASP and .PHP files by PHP. Simple really.

Thanks John! I'll check it out.

But i think you have to turn the asp_tags attribute off in the php.ini file or does it automatically know to use the php parser simply by file extension name?

I think it automacticly knows. I tried it and works fine and I didn't do anything extra. But maybe the php installer does something...

Hi!

IIS detects whether to run ASP or PHP by file extension. The installer adds a mapping between the .php extension and php4isapi.dll. Or you can do the mapping manually.
