9. Testing if PHP is installed properly.

Create a php file containing code <?php echo phpinfo(); ?> and save it as test.php.

Run this file on your web server and if you get an output like this :

test info

then your php installation is working properly on IIS in Windows 7.

A similar process can be followed for configuring PHP to work with IIS on Windows XP.
