php forums?you mean like this one?

http://www.phpbb.com/ (this one)
http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_a ... index.html (has a bunch).

you download them by clicking them :?, if you mean how can you intall them then most of the forums come with "how to install" guide.

well I guess first thing they are php files not html. and like qads said they come with install files that walk you through the setup process. phpBB has a good one. You need a mysql database and a username and password to connect to it. you need to put the files for the forum on your server and execute the install script. It pretty much walks you through from there.
