kenrbnsn Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Download and install [url=http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html]xampp[/url]. This will install the Apache webserver, PHP, and Mysql so you can test you PHP code on your pc.Ken Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/30052-why-cant-i-run-php-file-from-my-pc-ho-do-i-make-it-a-php-server/#findComment-138175 Share on other sites More sharing options...
