Off-line server-side testing
hmm... this may have been brought up before, but is it possible to test PHP scripts on a windows machine, without having to constantly upload it and test it on a server? PHP's taking a lot longer to learn because i don't have that 'instant' checking ability to find my errors...

thanks for your help!

cheers,

matt

Configure a web server on your machine and install PHP, then connect to it using http://localhost/, or your IP address.

I use Apache for my server - http://www.apache.org and you can get the PHP from www.php.net - on my windows 98 machine and it works beautifully for that need. They were quite easy to install as well! Good Luck!

I recommend this
http://sourceforge.net/projects/phptriad/

Download that. It installs PHP 4, MySQL, and Apache all in one binary distribution. It's real easy. The PHP Triad program installs everything itself, you do nothing but run the executable.
