php5 - server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (metapackage)
php5-cgi - server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (CGI binary)
I got the above by running the command "apt-cache search PHP5
1 What is the difference between the two.
One is part of the other.
I'm running Debian (which Ubuntu is based on), and by looking at the php5
package you can see that it depends on php5-cgi and a few other packages.
2 What shall I install to learn PHP with apache(Please specify the
apache version too since there are two types available for Ubuntu)
Can't really help you much there without more information, though again
assuming the Debian packages are the same or similar, installing the
apache2 package should pull in everything you need.
HTH,
