Does it look like this? http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/test/

I think that's a "feature".  You don't need the login button.  Just type
your user-name into the text box and hit return.  (If you view the page
with a non-javascript enabled browser, you should still see a login
button.)

(If you want the button back you can change this by editing
themes/default/templates/signin.tmpl.)

That's a feature-gone-bad.  When PHP is run as an apache module, it's
possible
to use URLs like that.  (Many people, myself included prefer that style
URL.)

When PHP is run as a stand-alone CGI interpreter, it is not possible to
use
that style of URL.  Normally PhpWiki auto-detects those cases and does the
right thing --- someone (most probably me) must have broken that
auto-detection somehow.

If you edit index.php and uncomment the line which says:

  if (!defined('USE_PATH_INFO')) define('USE_PATH_INFO', false);

that will fix that.



It would be useful for me (to help fix the auto-detection for
USE_PATH_INFO)
if you could create a public phpinfo page, and send me the URL to it.

(A phpinfo page, is a php script containing the one line:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

When browsed to, it should show a large spewage of information about
how PHP in configured, etc...)
