cannot compile php 5.2.5 following instructions exactly with vc++ 6

I have followed the instructions exactly on
http://php.nederland.net/manual/en/install.windows.building. php but I end up
with this error...

Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 6.00.8168.0
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp 1988-1998. All rights reserved.

internal_functions.c
ext\libxml/encoding.h(28) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file:
'iconv.
h': No such file or directory
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"cl.exe"' : return code '0x2'
Stop.

I have tried to configure like this

cscript /nologo configure.js --without-xml

to no avail... can anybody help me out here?

thanx in advance,

friso

You need a whole bunch of libraries and include files to build php on
windows - you can get them from http://files.edin.dk - look for zip.zip
(it will have enough libraries to build all of pecl if you want)

Basically that error means your environment is having trouble finding
your libiconv headers

And php really needs iconv and libxml to work the way it should
