php/mysq website -> cd
I now have a website based on php/mysql used to display a product catalogue. Is there a way to make this work from a cd (without installing any programs on the client computer)?
Is there another (better) way to do this?

Best regards,

I had to do the samething your stuck with for a company I worked for little over a year ago. The solution we used was to use one of those web site downloaders and saved everything as a html file.We lost some of the interaction features such as the search, but that was mainly because my boss wanted a very quick fix and did want us to worry about them. I did think if you want to keep the search do a javascript one, but have all the items entered into the javascript by the PHP.

I to quized the news groups and thes best answer I got was maybe try xtami(or something like that) server as it is dead small. There is also a PHP browser out there somewhere I can't remember where at the mo but it's free, one prob when I tried it briefly I couldn't get the database to link.

Hoped this has helped rather than confused. Luck!

Have you ever tried nusphere ???

They make a CD which installs Apache,Perl,PHP and blah blah through Browser !!!

They use something called Microweb mini webserver. It would run by itself and can act as webserver.

I am not sure it supports PHP or not but certainly can run CGI scripts.

Best thing to do I guess in your case

Just an idea, but how about PHP-GTK?

I don't think he wants to write client side application.

He wants to put off his existing PHP site somehow on CD. So GTK can't help I guess.

Thanks for your answers, but none of them does what I want. I think I will have to find another way of doing this.

You can't just access a MySQL db without MySQL running. You can't get MySQL running without it being installed. Convert your app to flat-file db and some language which compiles to .exe, cuz otherwise there must be something there to interprete your code.

What is it you want then trash?
We've all suggested viable ideas according to what you asked for. I'd be interested in hearing what you actually want.
