Re: shtml or php ??

I know the virtual command works on my hosting company, and yes it appears that my php is run as a cgi. Can I get php as a module on my windows based development machine so that I can fully test scripts ?? I also found that when using the virtual command on my host that the perl script didnt work properly, where as under SSI it does.
