rhodesa Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Follow the directions on that website to get the webserver installed. Then, to start learning PHP, try this site: http://devzone.zend.com/node/view/id/627 Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/104732-plz-help-me-of-testing-the-php-code-on-windows/#findComment-536130 Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildteen88 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 In order for you to test your PHP scripts on your computer you'll need two vital components, which is PHP and a http server. Why a http server? PHP is a server sided scripting language which means your PHP scripts are parsed by the server. Whereas a simple HTML/CSS document is parsed by your web browser. Your browser will only receive the output of your PHP scripts which will generally be HTML/CSS and not the PHP code within your scripts. Before starting PHP make sure you have an understanding of HTML and CSS. You'll still need to use HTML/CSS to layout your webpages generated by PHP.

robos99 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 please Tell Me Clearly. I dont know even a word of PHP. I just want to learn.... You'll probably be better off learning the basis BEFORE attempting to run them. For me, I started reading up on all this stuff before I even wrote a single line of code. If you don't know HTML/CSS either, you really are better off starting from the beginning. While you don't exactly NEED HTML/CSS to use PHP, if you want to output anything more than a basic "hello world", you might as well learn it. Plus HTML is easy.

DarkWater Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Install WAMP and use it while you're learning PHP to test examples from tutorials and such. (Off-topic: Woot, 800th post already!
