I can't answer your specific questions here but I uninstalled the Slackware php package and compiled it from scratch with some different options. I did this because Slack's version did not support postgresql and I need that database system here. If some buttons or labels are not showing up, there could be some javascript in that application; I ran into that exact problem with phpPgAdmin package for configuring postgresql databases. That package works great with my implimentation of php when I call it up from another machine running Internet Exploder - go figure. For the heck of it, here's a script I use to configure php for compilation. ----- configure script for php ----- #!/bin/sh # Configure PHP for installation ./configure --with-config-file-path=/etc/apache --with-apxs \ --with-openssl --with-pgsql ----- end of configure script ----- On Sun, Aug 31, 2003 at 11:57:01AM -0500, Alex Snow wrote: > Hi all. I'm trying to use phpmyadmin 2.2.3 with the php that comes with slackware. It seems to work somewhat, but I've noticed that none of the text on buttons, links, text boxes, radio buttons, etc is displaying. I've also noticed that lots of other apps like php-nuke will not work with this php. they just keep redirecting you to index.php until your browser finally gives up and craps out. Does anyone know how to fix this? > my pghp info is at http://h14me.homelinux.net:8080/phpinfo.php. >
