1. If you do not already have a Web server running on your computer, install Xitami off this CD by running bw3224d7.exe
2. Next, install PHP on your system by running php404pl1-installer.exe off the CD. This will automatically configure Xitami, PWS or IIS to use PHP.
3. Version 2 and 3 of the PHP Album use some graphic extensions to PHP. Create an 'extensions' folder in the directory where PHP is installed (C:\PHP by default), and unzip the php-extensions.zip file from this CD into your new folder.
4. To let PHP know the extensions are there, you must edit the C:\Windows\php.ini file. Open it in Notepad and scroll down to the 'Path and Directories' section.
5. Change the line reading "extension_dir=./" so it points to the directory where you unzipped the extensions - it should look something like: "extension_dir=c:\php\extensions" (without the quotes)
6. Scroll down to the 'Dynamic Extensions' section and remove the semi-colon (";") from in front of the extension=php_gd.dll and extension=php_zlib.dll lines.
7. Save php.ini. An example php.ini file is included in the extensions directory.
8. The project files are included in the phpalbum.zip file on this CD. Create a new directory called phpalbum in your Web server's webpage directory (C:\Xitami\webpages by default) and unzip it there.
9. Point your Web browser at http://127.0.0.1/phpalbum/index.htm. You're done!
