Maq Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 I'd recommend WAMP or look at the manual: http://us.php.net/install.windows Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/152917-install-php-on-xp-on-my-computer/#findComment-803097 Share on other sites More sharing options...

laffin Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 As somone else suggested. Use Wamp or Xampp. its an all in one packages, with apache mysql php. Once it installs, its already preconfigured. Just install & Go. Wamp vs Xampp Althought I have seen some configuration probs with Wamp on a few projects. It does have a nicer set of tools for windows, the tray tool is a lot better. But they both get the job done.- Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/152917-install-php-on-xp-on-my-computer/#findComment-803158 Share on other sites More sharing options...
