A very basic question..

Post by PHPNewbies »

Hello friends,

I am really a newbie to PHP. I have some basic questions.
:P Which OS supports PHP? Does Win 98 is sufficient?
:P I have PWS on one pc with Win 98 and IIS 5 on Win2k. Will they
support PHP?
:P Another machine with RedHat 9 with Apache.
:P Is there any GUI editor like Visual Interdev for PHP?

I hope answers to these questions are enough for me.

You can run on any OS.

"You can make a PHP script to run it without any server or browser. You only need the PHP parser to use it this way. This type of usage is ideal for scripts regularly executed using cron (on *nix or Linux) or Task Scheduler (on Windows). These scripts can also be used for simple text processing tasks. "

Dreamweaver is a pretty good overall web designing tool, with great PHP support. More @ viewtopic.php?t=6288

Don't forget to read php.net, Apache or MySQL (you'll need that one too soon enough, I think).

Have fun! I know I do.. :D
