  phpHtmlLib INSTALLATION


  Introduction
  ============

  I have tried to make the phpHtmlLib fairly easy to install
  and to use on anyone's current running site.  There are a few assumptions     
  I've made, but it shouldn't be a problem for 99% of the folks out there.  I   
  haven't tested the libs in a windows environment, as I don't have a M$ O.S. 
  installed anywhere in my house.  If you encounter any issues, please let me    
  know.  I welcome any and all feedback.
  
  Thanks and enjoy,

  Installing the libs
  ================================================

  1. Overview for the impatient
     --------------------------

     $ mv phphtmllib <your webdir DOCUMENT_ROOT>
     
     NOTE: in your script, set a global variable $phphtmllib to the
           location of your phphtml install.  If you installed it into
             your DOCUMENT_ROOT, you would do 
           <?php 
              $phphtmllib = $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] . "/phphtmllib"; 
              include_once("$phphtmllib/includes.inc");
           ?>

  2. Requirements
     ------------

     The following requirements exist for using phpHtmlLib :

     o  PHP version 4.2.x 
     
     Optional
     o  One of phpHtmlLib's DataListSource Classes can work with
        PEAR and/or ADODB DB abstraction layer classes.  PEAR should
        already be installed if you have a proper PHP install.  You 
        can get ADODB (much better IMHO) from 
        http://php.weblogs.com/ADODB


  3. Installing
     ----------

     1. Copy the entire phphtmllib directory into your website's source
        tree.  I typically install it in DOCUMENT_ROOT/phphtmllib.
          You don't have to have it installed in the document root, but that is
          where I normally install it.
        
     2. In each script that uses the libs, you MUST set a global variable
        $phphtmllib to the path of your phphtmllib dir in your web tree.
          So, if you installed phphtmllib in your DOCUMENT_ROOT, like I do,
          then you set $phphtmllib = $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] . "/phphtmllib"
          I usually do this at the top of my scripts, or have a include file
          of defines and such that sets this.
        
        After that you should be able to include the main includes file
          include_once("$phphtmllib/includes.inc"); to include all of the files
          in the lib, or you can include each file that you need individually
          to save include processing.
