hi. a blind web site designer using the jaws for windows screen reader from http://www.freedomscientific.com, and now downloaded and installed wamp server 2.0, and got word press. as started a full blown star trek application using visual web developer and my sql epxress 2008, but now want to change to a cms, much easier to set up and convert. but i start wamp server, make sure it is online, and then make sure php is enabled. when i try to install word press, from the install.php from the admin, says php is not turned on, so i need help. or do i go to another more accessible, blind friendly cms. marvin from devonport, tasmania, australia.

WordPress requires that your web server is running PHP. Your server does not have PHP installed, or PHP
is turned off.

Check your php configuration from your wampserver. left click wampserver>php>php settings>short_open_tags

If uncheck, check it.

and 1 more, make sure your wordpress folder is placed in the WWW root folder.
