Register Script

I'm back with another nab question, which I'm in desperate need of taking care of. Making a registration page on my website. Before pointing me toward the search button, or a thread compiled of multiple thread links which will take me to a page without a tutorial, and just a .PHP script, hear me out. I know absolutely nothing of PHP, and am a beginner at MSSQL. My question is how I connect my Register.php to my MSSQL server. My second question is how I trigger my .PHP script. My third question is how I implement it into my webpage. Do I have to use xammp? I'm also a beginner at that. I'm in need of a detailed guide on how to do this.

1.
MsSQL Connect:

PHP Code:

---

<?php
mssql_connect("\SQLEXPRESS", "sa", "password") or die("Unable to connect to database.");
?>

---

In \SQLEXPRESS, put your computername\SQLEXPRESS.

sa = username
password = mssql password(you made one up)

2. Triggering your PHP script.

To trigger, you gotta have apache, have mssql connected in apache's php files, and then putting the .php file in your server website. then, just go to 127.0.0.1/script_name.php.

3. Yes, you need xampp, or apache.

Okay, I'm understanding this better. But one thing. How do I connect MSSQL to apache? Sorry, I'm a complete beginner to this.

You have to apply the extension in php.ini.

There's a tutorial in the release section. Please look it up.

Just look up "Xampp".

I tried guides, and everything else. Here we are, a few days go by and I still can't do it.
I guess I'll end up having to pay someone to do it for me.
