Hi All,

I'm absolutely new to PHP.

What is the name of the latest stable version which I can include in my command for installing?

Useful info may be that I also need to install:

MySQL v5.1+
Apache v1.3+, Apache 2.0+, lighttpd, Microsoft IIS

Thanks

Microsoft IIS and Linux server... don't you see a contradiction here? If you want to install PHP on a Linux server, I assume that you have already heard about package managers and that the Linux distros have a PHP installation already packaged to you. Refer to your distro manual or wiki - there must be a page describing step by step, how to install everything.

And PHP versions can be checked at www.php.net .

Why would you want to install 4!!! HTTP servers?
