Well I installed EasyPHP and it works, I can run php files on my PC, I was wonderin how no-ip works, as I want to hide the 127.0.0.1 which is the EasyPHP Web Local or my IP?

Slightly Confused!

Fixed the problem, sorry for wasting your time, my mate figured it out!

EDIT: I am the only one who can view it though, and Since I am running xp home edition I cannot install IIS and don't really want to mess about with files etc, so is there another way for people to view php files etc, thats stored on my pc? Would only be used with friends though

Set No-IP to use IP address instead of localhost (127.0.0.1).

When that is done however, I get cannot find server. EasyPHP installs then u just place the php files in the www folder, which is inside the area where easyPHP was installed.

E.G. H:\Program Files\EasyPHP1-8\www\

that would be an example of where the www folder is hence why it doesn't get picked up when I go to my IP.

I am running XP Home, so there is no chance of me installing IIS, without having to mess around with files etc.
