[mapguide-users] JSP and PHP and fusion

[Paul Spencer]

I'm not sure, hopefully someone else will jump in with an answer  
here.  I've never installed anything except PHP.  If I recall  
correctly, PHP is installed when you include the mapguide admin tool  
since it is written in PHP, perhaps you don't need to do anything?

Cheers

Paul
