I hope that someone can help. Every time I test my PHP scripts I have to upload to my host server which is costing myself money. I here that there is a way that you can setup your PC to view your PHP work (local server).
Any ideas?
Newbie, fairly stuck on local web server setup

Of course!
What you need is apache, php, and MySql if you are doing database work.
get apache from http://www.apache.org, get php from http://www.php.net and get mysql from http://www.mysql.com
When you have got everything report back. What OS are you using btw?

This is much easier:

Newer version costs a bit of cash: http://phpgeek.com/

While I agree a prebuild solution is easier, I think that learning how to configure apache properly is very useful - afterall, it's not as if it's all *that* hard, took me about half an hour to get my server all up, and trust me, im a LOT younger than most of you
Mind you, a prebuilt solution could be just fine if you don't wan't to know about configuration... up to you...
