When i put tried this in my example you can see the exaple at

http://students.iiit.ac*****~dinesh/example.html

it compiles but it behaves starange which i can't understand

in the installer it comes as ...............

InstallDir: "$PROGRAMFILES\example2"
InstallRegKey: "HKLM\Software\NSIS_example2\Install_Dir"
Section: "PHP"
ReadRegStr $4 HKLM\Software\MicrosoftPHP\CurrentVersion
IfErrors ?0:done
MessageBox: 0: "Your system has PHP"
Goto: proceed
MessageBox: 0: "Your system doesn't have php"
Quit
SectionEnd

................
it should not go in done and proceed function then why it is going i used quit instead of "Abort"

Thanx for yr reply

example is ..

; example2.nsi
;
; This script is based on example1.nsi, but it remember the directory,
; has uninstall support and (optionally) installs start menu shortcuts.
;
; It will install example2.nsi into a directory that the user selects,

;--------------------------------

; The name of the installer
Name "example2"

; The file to write
OutFile "example2.exe"




; The default installation directory
InstallDir $PROGRAMFILES\example2

; Registry key to check for directory (so if you install again, it will
; overwrite the old one automatically)

InstallDirRegKey HKLM "Software\NSIS_example2" "Install_Dir"

;--------------------------------

; The stuff to install

/* php detection */
Section "PHP"
ReadRegStr $4 HKLM "Software\MicrosoftPHP" "CurrentVersion"
IfErrors 0 done
MessageBox MB_OK "Your system has PHP"
goto proceed

done:
MessageBox MB_OK "Your system doesn't have php"
Quit

proceed:
SectionEnd

Section "file_association"

SectionIn RO

; Set output path to the installation directory.
SetOutPath $INSTDIR

; Put file there
File "example2.nsi"




; Write the installation path into the registry
WriteRegStr HKLM SOFTWARE\NSIS_example2 "Install_Dir" "$INSTDIR"

; Write the uninstall keys for Windows
WriteRegStr HKLM "Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\example2" "DisplayName" "NSIS_example2"

WriteRegStr HKLM "Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\example2" "UninstallString" '"$INSTDIR\uninstall.exe"'
SectionEnd

Maybe you are using IfErrors incorrectly, because I have php installer..and this both works propertly:

"LogicLib.nsh"


>Name "example2"

>OutFile "example2.exe"

>ShowInstDetails show


InstallDir $EXEDIR



Section "PHP"

>ReadRegStr $4 HKLM "Software\\Microsoft\\PHP" "CurrentVersion"

>${IF} $4 = ""

>DetailPrint "Your system doesn't has PHP"

>${ELSE}

>DetailPrint "Your system does have php: $4"

>${ENDIF}

>SectionEnd

I am trying to download the files using NSISdl as

>NSISdl::download http://www.programmersheaven.com/d/c...F6656&AltURL=2 $0

i have also tried "download_quiet"
But it also didn't work..
it always shows error as "unable to open "
I can further extract it by zipdll plugin...
Can you suggest the error ....

unable to open can be:
1. bad url format.
2. url doesn't exists.
3. Can't connect to the server.
4. Firewall blocked.
5. No internet connection.
6. Connection to the server was too long or busy
