i tried EasyPHP.. it gave me an error.. Apache servr cannot be runned.. another web server use the web port what to do now????????

AWESOME GUYS!!! Thanks a lot for ur comments.. so now i get a picture of how to do the things... the best option that looks to me is that to create an application on a computer then later make it a web server...meanwhile ill also try easyphp.. as suggested by projectshifter.. to make my local pc a webserver to run a php application - i need three things -apache, php and mysql.. right??? ill install these three ..but is there any specific order of doing that or any particular way of collaborating them?? ill appreciate if you can tell me the proper order--like step wise or any site where there would be proper steps.. thanks a lot guys... take care
