Hi, I have just gotten a computer with Windows XP Home Edition as operating system. To my surprise I find that Microsoft's Personal Web Server won't run on this operating system. Therefore I wonder if anyone please could recommend some alternative way in which I can create a practical server solution for PHP development on my machine. I would need it ONLY for personal web site development with PHP and MySQL and NOT for serving web pages over the Internet etc. I can see two main ways of approaching this problem: (1) Installing and using another server (which ?) on this operating system.
Just download and install the Apache webserver for windows, just what you want :) Cheers, Brad -- Brad Kowalczyk Web Developer www.ibiscode.com
