- If your server does not already have PHP installed, download and install PHP from http://php.net/downloads.php. Note that that precompiled Windows version might only be available in 32 bit format. This will run on a Windows 64 bit server, but it means you must download & install the 32 bit version of Chart Director, even if you are running a 64 bit Windows server.

- Download Chart Director from http://www.advsofteng.com/. There are several versions there, you should get 'Chart Director for PHP'. Select the appropriate download for your server.

- Unzip the file, read and follow the installation instructions. You may have to change your php configuration to support dynamic extensions. If so, you must restart either IIS or apache for the changes to take effect.

- Test the installation by trying to display the sample charts in your web browser.
- If you are running on Linux, note that php may have 2 php.ini files, depending on if php is invoked from apache or the command line. Appx will be invoking it from command line, so any changes you make to /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini should also be made to /etc/php5/cli/php.ini (paths may be different on your system).
- You are now ready to try to run the examples in 1CD. Go into Application Design & review the paths in the SET IMAGE PATH subroutine. Change as required. The sample charts will still display if this path is incorrect, they will just be missing some icons.
