Hi Onike,

well you need a few more things... then just a webbrowser. PHP is
server-side so this is what you need to get started.
(1) A webserver
-http://www.xitami.com/ easy to install, easy to configure.
You can ask me
if you have any questions on how to set up Xitami... It's small, yet
powerful and easy on beginners. I'd strongly recommend this as your first
one to try.
-http://www.apache.org/ really hard, especially if
you're beginner, but by
the time you have set it up you gained a lot of knowledge on how a webserver
is working...
(you just need one) and don't give you the pain of installing MS PWS...
First of all you really learn nothing, and second PWS sucks...
(2) Latest PHP for Win32
-http://www.php4win.de/ get the 4.0.4-dev version
(3) A texteditor
-http://www.textpad.com/
(4) A database ie. MySQL
-http://www.mysql.com/ get the 3.23.27-beta
Read all the docs, goto http://www.php.net/, etc., ask here, read
docs
again... well this will keep you busy for a while :-).
Hope this helped.
Cheers,
Matthias
