Help !! Code aftler -> is not recognized. Some problem with class???

[phpuser]

Hi, I am new to this forum and PHP. I have installed PHP and MySQL on windows XP. I have run a couple of codes, but where ever in code class->memberfunction syntax comes the code does not get parsed beyond that. Is there some problem with the installation of extensions.

Also when i select all the extensions that are available with PHP and install, there is a problem in running any code. The error says :
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not
 returning a complete set of HTTP headers.
 The headers it did return are:
      etc...

Can anyone please help....

I'm having the same problem - but when I change the php tags from
<? php
...
?>

to
<script language="php>
...
</script>

it works.
Does someone have a better idea?  Why is '->' being confused with the php close tag '?>' ?

if your running php locally I suggest using XAMPP: http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html easy to setup and could remove the problem you have.
