AbelCam supports the use of PHP.
To use PHP within AbelCam, install the PHP 5.3.3 zip package
from www.php.net
download php-5.3.3-nts-Win32-VC9-x86.zip
5.3.3 is the current release - later versions are expected to work as well.
Install PHP
extract zip file to c:\php
AbelCam expects to find PHP in c:\php
Use wwwroot\php\c-php-php.ini as template for c:\php\php.ini
Changes to the default php.ini are marked with ;ABELCAM
Start AbelCam, the PHP Logo will be shown on the Web page
Once PHP is enabled, you can have a look at the PHP examples in wwwroot\php:
