  16                      is displayed in a tabbed format with three main sections
  17                      of content.</p>
  18                 <ul>
  19                      <li><strong>System Info Tab</strong>: This a
  20                           broad snapshot of the server and versions of the current
  21                           installation components of your Mambo site. Here you
  22                           will find your PHP build and version, your MySQL database
  23                           version along with the Mambo version and relevant settings
  24                           that your server has set that might interfere with your
  25                           current site installation. Here, you will also find
  26                           the contents of your Mambo Configuration file. This
  27                           file is produced when you perform the installation of
  28                           Mambo on your server, and is changed when you make changes
  29                                to in the global configuration section of the Administration
  30                                of Mambo. This file defines many of the global
  31                           variables that Mambo uses to execute. You can not edit
  32                           the file from here, but it does allow you to look at
  33                           your current settings to find problems or to copy the
  34                           information.&nbsp;</li>
  35                      <li><strong>PHP
  36                           Info Tab</strong>: PHP is the server side scripting
  37                           language that Mambo runs on. This language is installed
  38                           and executes on the server, and therefore all the settings
  39                           are made on that server. Everything you ever wanted
  40                           to know about the PHP installation on your Mambo server
  41                           is listed here. How much control you have over changing
  42                           this information depends on whether you own the server
  43                           or if your server host is willing to work with you on
  44                           needed changes. The PHP tab will allow you to look at
  45                           all the settings and variables that define your PHP
  46                           installation. It is a good practice to insure that you
  47                           know what requirements are needed for any &#39;Third
  48                           Party&#39; Components that you plan to use with Mambo. You
  49                      can then check for those requirements here.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
  50                      <li><strong>Permissions
  51                           Tab</strong>:&nbsp;Displays a list of all critical Mambo
  52                           directories that should be writable in order for Mambo to
  53                           function correctly.&nbsp;If you find a directory that is
  54                           not writable, you should change it to writable. You cannot
  55                           do it from here. You have to do it using your FTP&nbsp;client,
  56                 or asking your hoster to do it for you.</li>
