hi to all! i need to "distribute" php (non database-linked) code like it was a 'normal' software running in a browser window. is there any way to do that?
if not, which is the smallest php-compatible offline server a la apache? i could distribute it and the php files..
thanks for upcoming help

php-gtk are libraries for a php based gui interface. it means you have to build up a new gui etc, it is not really browser-based (which i need)
priadoblender could be perfect if it only worked! hev you tried it? as far as i've seen it produces msdos applications..

Well, if you don't want DOS, you'll need GTK. You'd have to create the browser to run your programs in

Priadoblender works great!
It produces a native windows app that does exactly what you tell it to do. If you tell it to output text/html, its going to look like a dos window - because thats what the os does when you tell it "here is some text output"!
If on the other hand you use php-gtk, you can create EXTREMELY convincing windows apps - I've seen a browser 'blended' using priado.
It all depends on what you make it do. Its *not* visual basic - it doesnt hand you native window widgets, and ask you to arrange them. Its php - so if you want a full gui, you almost definitely want to code it in php-gtk, unless you want to paint your own gui, which would be.. uhh.. silly in php.
