<?
phpinfo();
?>

Type that into your favorite editor and save it as info.php. If you are on Win32 and use Notepad put quotes around the filename.

I always right click and create a New text document. Then I change the filename from "New Text Document.txt" to newname.php

If you don't see the .txt on the filename, then you need to change an option in Tools->Folder Options. On the view tab make sure "Hide file extensions for known file types" is off.

Windows will complain when you change the file extension, but just ignore that.
