phpinfo problem

Just one problem.  The traditional "Hello World," program that my book
starts off with includes a PHP function called, phpinfo()--prefaced by a
print command.  It's supposed to print out a rather large amount of
information in the form of a table.

Have you ever head of this function?  It won't work for me.  It just prints
a ton of code, instead of printing the table.  Is there a good place where I
can get an entire list of all PHP functions?  Or doesn't that exsist?

Hello:

Have you activated the display_errors directive in your php.ini,which is in
your Windows Folder ?

The Php manual contains a function reference.

The code is probably html - so best to view it in a web browser ;-)
I find it easiest to create a file called info.php which contains:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

but this is by no means the only way.
To see a list of php functions i would look on php.net. Here for instance:
http://uk2.php.net/manual/en/function.phpinfo.php

hope this helps
