If there's anything wrong with my installation I'm not aware of it. I've
gone thru php.ini pretty closely and the XAMPP conf files and AFAICT all is
OK.
Every other .php I have played with works, including phpinfo and several
other stubs I've played with.
No, I'm not getting the wrong file. It only exists in and is saved directly
to htdocs.
I use NotePro to develop my code as it has an automatic click where all
it takes is a click to send the file in htdocs to my local server. It also
has a great clip library for PHP plus I made one of my own to make things
easier to find.
And I use NoteTab for highlghting the text, etc. when I have to
troubleshoot. Maybe I will look into a legit IDE and see if that helps with
stuff like this.

that might help; I'll dig more into it. Thanks.
