Hi Onike, > Can jou tell me if I can run PHP from Internet Explorer? > What else do I need to use PHP to develop an e-commerce project? 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
