Installing on PC??? Ok, I'm confused...

Post by Alpha Remex »

So I am new to PHP and though the language seems easy enough to understand, I am having a hard time with installation.

Here's the thing - I need to make a company web page (internal server) use PHP, but that server does not currently have PHP compilers on it, nor does it have Apache, IIS, etc. So I have to install all of it...

I'm confused, however, because all of the tutorials I have read tell you to install all of this on a local machine? I fail to see how that is going to allow another user to go onto the server and use the php page...?

Any help here is much appreciated... I'm so confused! :banghead:

Well if I was you I would learn how to install each individual component, but if you just want to get up and running:
