Hi, Thanks to everyone's suggestions, I have followed some instructions from http://www.geeksengine.com/article/install-pear-on-windows.html and attempted to install PEAR. The problem is, when I do a test page, which only has: <?php error_reporting(-1); require_once "PEAR.php"; ?>. utor It only gives me a blank page, with no errors. Has anyone who succeeded with using PEAR on PHP can guide me on a good tutorial to read? Thanks for your help.
