RE: [PHP] PHP MySQL Install

Yes it is, but makes few sense.. on Windows platform many PHP functions/features just do not work, how could you test it? I mean, if you are developing a multiplatform compatible software then Win95 is the best "ultimate test" for that. The best configuration for PHP is Linux-MySQL-whatever-open-source-you-would-ever-find this is our world. My Personal Advice to you is to figure out a way to use the same machine you will upload the scripts on once they've passed your tests. Open a new virtual host accessible via a different port, or place the script in a password-protected parallel directory in your root.. Or (even smarter), get yourself an old & cheap computer (like I did) a P133, 32Ram, 2Gb HD.., no need for monitor, no graphic, sound cards... you'll pay maybe 100-200$ , install there the same OS and PHP, MySQL versions you use on your MAIN machine and just put it under your desk . That's the best _Ultimate Test Server_ you would ever have!
