 OpenID Example Code
 -------------------
 
-To try the example consumer implementation (which is probably what you
-want), just copy the consumer/ directory into a place on your web
-server and point your browser at the new directory.  (Be sure that the
-'Auth' directory included in this package is installed in your PHP
-include_path.)
+After you've installed this package (see ../README), you can use these
+example packages to get started.  They'll show you what this package
+can do, and you can use them as the basis for your own OpenID support.
+
+consumer/: OpenID Example Consumer
+==================================
+
+To try the example consumer implementation, just copy the consumer/
+directory into a place on your web server and point your browser at
+the new directory.
+
+1. Check to be sure that /tmp is in your "open_basedir" configuration,
+   if open_basedir is being used to restrict PHP's file I/O.  See
+   http://us2.php.net/features.safe-mode for more information.  For
+   example, in your php.ini, change
+
+   open_basedir = "..."
+
+   to
+
+   open_basedir = "/tmp:..."
+
+   (If you really don't want to add /tmp to your open_basedir, you can
+   modify consumer/common.php and change $store_path so it doesn't
+   create the store directory in /tmp.)
+
+2. Copy or symlink the consumer/ directory into a part of your
+   webserver's docroot.  For example, if your DocumentRoot is
+   /var/www/, do this:
+
+   # cd /var/www
+   # ln -s /path/to/PHP-OpenID-X.Y.Z/examples/consumer
+
+3. Navigate to http://www.example.com/consumer and enter an OpenID
+   into the form presented there and click "Verify".

+
+server/: OpenID Example Server
+==============================
+
+To try the example server, follow these steps:
+
+1. Customize server/config.php based on what your PHP installation
+   supports.  The documentation in the file describes what each value
+   is for.
+
+2. Copy or symlink the server/ directory into a part of your
+   webserver's docroot.  For example, if your DocumentRoot is
+   /var/www/, do this:
+
+   # cd /var/www
+   # ln -s /path/to/PHP-OpenID-X.Y.Z/examples/server
+
+3. For each of the identity URLs you added to the $openid_users array
+   in config.php, add the following to the <HEAD> tag of the pages at
+   those URLs:
+
+   <link rel="openid.server" href="http://www.example.com/server/server.php" />
+
+   Where "www.example.com/server" is the path to the server symlink
+   that you created in step (2).
+
+4. Navigate to http://www.example.com/server and click the "Log In"
+   link to test the OpenID(s) entered into the config file.
+
+5. Use the OpenID checkup tool to try authenticating with your OpenID:
+
+   http://www.openidenabled.com/resources/openid-test/checkup
+
+   If your OpenID server isn't on the public internet, you can use the
+   example consumer packaged with this library.  See the consumer
+   section above.

+server/ Files
+=============
+
+These files make up the server example code:
+
+  config.php - The configuration file you'll need to customize to run
+the example server.
+
+  server.php - The PHP rendering script that takes care of handling
+server requests from both regular user agents and consumers.
+
+  lib/actions.php - Handles the various types of requests that the
+server supports.
+
+  lib/common.php - Supplies functions that wrap the OpenID API calls
+to make them easier to use.
+
+  lib/render.php - Miscellaneous page rendering code.
+
+  lib/session.php - More miscellaneous page rendering code.
+
+  lib/render/*.php - Files for each page presented by the server.
