Setting Up PHP 5.2.2 on Windows

Alison Holloway provides a solution for a problem while trying to set up PHP 5.2.2 on Windows XP Pro with Apache 2.0.59. She had trouble trying to get Apache to find the correct php.ini file as it was looking into the C: Windows instead of where it was installed. Even though the httpd.conf file was directing Apache to look in C:Programs FilesPH, it wasn't accepting the command. So, none of the extensions were loading.

She found that changing the back slashes to forward slashes fixes the problem.
