add this line: LoadModule php5_module c:/php/php5apache2.dll
to the Notepad file underneath:
# LoadModule foo_module modules/mod_foo.so
#
Therefore, the Text Editor file should read:
# LoadModule foo_module modules/mod_foo.so
#
LoadModule php5_module c:/php/php5apache2.dll

The example "connection = DB::connect("...");" should match the actual line it is
quoting - it should read "$connection = DB::connect("...");" - the dollar sign is
