ActiveScript

This section contains notes specific to the ActiveScript installation.

ActiveScript is a windows only SAPI that enables you to use PHP script in any ActiveScript compliant host, like Windows Script Host, ASP/ASP.NET, Windows Script Components or Microsoft Scriptlet control.

As of PHP 5.0.1, ActiveScript has been moved to the PECL repository. Sie können die DLL für diese PECL Erweiterung entweder von PHP Downloads oder von http://snaps.php.net/ herunterladen.

After installing PHP, you should download the ActiveScript DLL (php5activescript.dll) and place it in the main PHP folder (e.g. C:\php).

After having all the files needed, you must register the DLL on your system. To achieve this, open a Command Prompt window (located in the Start Menu). Then go to your PHP directory by typing something like cd C:\php. To register the DLL just type regsvr32 php5activescript.dll.

To test if ActiveScript is working, create a new file, named test.wsf (the extension is very important) and type:

<job id="test"> <script language="PHPScript"> $WScript->Echo("Hello World!"); </script> </job>

Save and double-click on the file. If you receive a little window saying "Hello World!" you're done.
