Daniel, thank you. I looked it up and got so confused I turned to cursing and ice cream. The driver installed and it seems to be okay, though I've yet to actually try scanning anything.

The example file is where the extremely sketchy MAMP documentation insists it should go: /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/listing6-1.php
The error reads:
Not Found
The requested URL /MAMP/htdocs/listing6-1.php was not found on this server.
Apache/2.0.59 (Unix) PHP/5.2.1 DAV/2 mod_ssl/2.0.59 OpenSSL/0.9.7l Server at 127.0.0.1 Port 8888
The URL is
http://127.0.0.1:8888/MAMP/htdocs/listing6-1.php
As I read the above, it looks like PHP is indeed started, from the error message, and filepath is resolving into something that should work.
Except it doesn't. :: tears hair a little more ::

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

And simultaneously in another window, I'm able to run phpMyAdmin SQL commands just fine, open up tables and do operations directly in SQL.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
have you tried http: //127.0.0.1:8888/listing6-1.php ?

The first gets an error:
Index of /

The second works, sort of, except that it doesn't seem to actually work work, but at least it gets a screen like it should!

htdocs isn't usually in a URL, but is rather the root of the directory that the web server points to.
That message isn't an error--it's a directory listing.

Excellent. htdocs is the folder name Apache uses for web documents -- you'll want to put all the files you make in there. Of course, they shoulda documented it better!
(Oh, and the first wasn't an error -- it's just that ugly file listing you get when there's no index page)

That's weird -- when I click on ita's link (which reads http: //127.0.0.1:8888/listing6-1.php ), it will open the PHP correctly. But if I open a new tab or window, it won't find anything.

So the only place PHP code can live is in the htdocs directory if I'm going to run PHP, right?
