I have been reading some threads and would like to download the Apache PHP but not sure which link to use. I also happened to see a webpage from Red Hat that stated Admin. Only. I'm new and would get lost in probably downloading the wrong software. I use html and view my work through my windows explorer so is there any direct links that you would suggest?

Thank You

Mary

to install a web server (Apache MySQL & PHP)
go to this website: http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html

To learn PHP see here: http://www.php-mysql-tutorial.com/

I learnt by a combination of reading the tutorial, this web site and plenty of practice!
Good luck!

I picked up the link http://www.php-mysql-tutorial.com/ by reading the threads. I want to install the Apache PHP but not sure if I'm grabbing the right one?

This is the link to the actual installer file for windows:
http://www.apachefriends.org/download.php?xampp-win32-1.6.8-installer.exe
Just download and install!

Yes, install XAMPP. Read all the documentation on their site.

It is great.

Good Luck.
