Ok, I tried a different approach: just try this demo app http://www.dreadsoft.org/php-gtk/demoapplication.zip (less than 90 KB) source script here http://www.dreadsoft.org/php-gtk/piggie.zip (2 KB) once launched, the installer looks for php-gtk installations (searching php-gtk2.dll) If not found will ask to download it.
