bhanu1225 Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Hello Everyone ... I would like to practice PHP in home. So, i need the best version of PHP and relevant back end database ( i don't know ) to use. Is PHP works best for stand alone applications ? Please give clear response , rather than the links.

Bricktop Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Hi bhanu1225, PHP normally goes hand in hand with the MySQL database application, although you can use PHP to run standalone applications perfectly (you could even use flat file databases but that's for another time maybe) Anyway, I would recommend you download a WAMP package so you can use PHP and MySQL together on your home PC. Visit http://www.wampserver.com/en/ and have a look around, or Google "WAMP" for other WAMP packages - there are loads out there. If you download a WAMP package, make sure you get up to date version of PHP and MySQL - these are 5.3.0 and 5.1.36 respectively.s As far as learning PHP goes, there are hundreds and hundreds of online resources out there, some good ones for a beginner are W3 Schools at http://www.w3schools.com/PHP/DEfaULT.asP and Tizag.com at http://www.tizag.com/phpT/ Have fun!
