Local PHP script executor

Does anyone know of any program that will execute PHP scripts on your
local machine? I'm learning PHP and I don't like having to upload
scripts to my ISPs web space before testing them. Any help will be
appreciated.

Yes, PHP itself. You can install it locally.

http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.php
http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.manual.php

Or there are a number of installer packages for Windows that do the (not
actually particularly complicated) setup steps for you.

(cut-n-paste stuff and adjust to suit)

..
Click on PHPDEV BUNDLES .
..
Click on PHPDEV423 .
..
Download the PHPGB zip file and unpack .
..
Put the PHPGB folder into the WWW folder in the PHPDEV folder .
..
/ phpdev / www / phpgb / phpgb_index.php
..
Create a bookmark in your browser called http://localhost (dont worry
about the http:// bit you can use this offline and the http://localhost
is just the technical word used)
..
Click on localhost .
..
Click on the phpgb folder .
..
Click on the phpgb_index.php file .
..
PHPGB will now start up and you can use it pretty much as normal .

Look
Do you have Apache?
First requirement is you should have local server like Apache or IIS.
Secondly just down load php binaries from php.net (win32 binaries)

Install it on your local m/c.
Try your self. If not done for further detail contact me.. don't worry
I'll not charge anything to you.

Hi, I finally figured out the best way to synch local and remote script folders, containing many php script files. What I used to do before was try to ftp all the changed files, etc. which was tedious and often broke. It was also very slow. What I do now is to pkzip the folder up, ftp the pkzip’ed data to remote, and then unzip it there, which recreates the directories and files.
