    I tired to run WAMP & XAMPP on my PC but both just opena blank page when I go to localhost
    Both of them use to work fine on my PC before but now none of them are working.Is there a way to find what problem is there that both of them show blank page, and I tired to reinstall but same result.

    After testing several WAMPs, I stick with EasyPHP for its simplicity. There's a simple free guide available too.

    have you got it pointing to a different port? have you tried opening the control panel and make sure that apache is running? xampp control panel doesn't always like running as a service, nor apache if you have messed with your windows setup...

    same problem here, xampp shows that is working, apache started, mysql started, I give it some refreshes the same problem: the page is either blank or showing the php code on it. Any sugestions? By the way, it can be the firewall / router??
